He Never Should Have Told Me

He never should have told me I wasn’t smart enough
That made me even more determined to be extremely rough
A master craftsman I never claimed to be

But no one tells me no,  so just you wait and see
So there I was with my tools in my hands
Definitely decided on a perfect, infallible plan

I stood back and gazed at the awaiting task
Knowing full well I was being a complete jackass
That didn’t stop me, no not at all

I figured in no time the big job would be small
I looked at the clock and 2 hours had passed
I knew he would come back to check and laugh

So stuff started flying in several directions
Landing only occasionally in the correct position
Working was I as a dysfunctional wacky

Then I realized the stuff was making me kooky
Fumes were consuming me and making me dizzy
I fell on my fanny and became stuck in a wizzy

He came to the door and began laughing hysterically
With camera in hand taking pictures for posterity
Stubborn you are and stubborn you will be

Until you completely apologize to me
You will remain exactly where you are
On our freshly stripped and vanished floor
