Does Anyone Like Me?

Like being on the stage

Or a Facebook page

I wanna be liked

I have to be liked

 

Like a movie maker 

Or a mover and a shaker

I crave to be liked

I’ve got to be liked

 

Being late for an appointment 

Or filled with disappointment 

Is what nobody likes

Not everybody likes 

 

Too big for your boots?

Or are you out of the groove?

Then nobody likes you

And it comes back to bite you

 

You see everyone likes a winner 

Even when you are a sinner 

If we’re fat we wanna be thinner

Just have vegetables for dinner 

 

And still nobody likes us

No one wants to hype us

Nobody likes us

Nobody hypes us

Does anyone like me?

Aww thanks people, yes you wonder how life is going to be for young people even in five years time. Thanks Rose for the lips, you look quite likeable yourself! Ha, ha. Cheers

some of the young of today are walking on thin ice when it comes to the want of being like Fred, the awful results of which we are becoming all too familiar with. Thank you.Jemima.

Thanks Keith,

It was inspired by the fact that young people seem to be obsessed with being liked, especially on social media. It works as a rap too!
