The Asian nerd

The Asian nerd. 

Today i've had English, Art and Maths

And the only thing i get are laughs,

The kids at school they don't understand, 

What its like to be in a foreign land. 

They laugh and tease, 

At my quiet unease, 

And when I get home, its all the same

And I still have to face the shame. 

The life I lead, 

Is hard indeed. 

They look no further then their street creed, 

They do not care about what I need.

I always try and that's no lie

So why do people always pass me by. 

All I want is a couple of friends 

In two's and three's and nine's and ten's. 

So that is me, 

I'm not what everyone wants me to be, 

I want to be free like a bird, 

But instead I am the Asian nerd.
