Arachne’s sister

Arachne’s sister’s song of Annoyance

Me – I look on the bright side
Always have and always will ,
– what’s the point in looking under stones ?
Without a notion what you’ll find
Making trouble , asking questions , stepping out of line
There is no need when – basically – most things are mostly fine
Her – though – she HAD to be different
Ever since she was a child
Asking Why? … And Is that True ? Annoying things like that
There’s a word for it – it’s“ Different ”
I just called her – Brat
See me – I like romantic things
and unicorns and angel wings
And fairy tales with magic words
And pretty colours , singing birds
And she likes skeletons and turds
And also Scandal – it is not as if we didn’t know
What They were up to – but we had the sense
To talk in whispers – laugh amongst ourselves
In hidden corners – quietly –
Not sew it on a bloody tapestry !
Exposé in embroidery .
Well Arachne – honestly !
You have lost my sympathy
Anyone with wit would see
This would end in tragedy
Talent isn’t everything
See the trouble it can bring !
Now you’re hanging on a string

At least you’re less embarrassing
