Pantoum of the Same Difference
It’s the same difference everywhere:
No one is ever who he wants to be,
Everyone thinks he is someone else
And Anyone can do it better than he.
No one is ever who he wants to be
Till Someone tells him what he wants to hear:
That Anyone can do it better than he
And teach No one what he needs to know.
Now Someone tells him what he wants to hear:
Don’t ever listen to Anyone else
Telling No one that what he needs to know
Won’t hurt Anyone if No one cares.
So No one listens to Anyone else
Because Everyone thinks he is Someone else
And it doesn’t hurt that No one will care:
It’s the same difference everywhere.
