You Tell Me What to do

You spanked me on the ass.
You made me kneel in front of class.
You sent me to the basement with the janitor.
And now you wonder what is the matter
with me?

You tell me what to do,
But I don’t follow you.

You tell me to wear a mask.
You never ask.
You tell me to get jabbed.
You tell me to get rehabbed.
not me.

You tell me what to do,
But I don’t follow you.

You threaten and cajole.
Your story so often told.
You want me to obey.
I don’t want slavery.
you see?

You tell me what to do,
But I don’t follow you.

Never have, no way!
