Brainwashed since birth

Location

Tell me who you are so I know who to impress.  Are you a jock? Because I swear I always watch ESPN. If you're a dancer that's cool I'll show you my pirouette. If you're a prep I'll remember to bring my Prada bag to school. Don't forget the geeks who have a math meet at three. I promise I'll come support but I can't even count past 44. If you're a Goth ill remember to paint my nails black, but I don't think my mom will really like that.  We can't forget the band geeks, the choir kids, or the book worms, cuz I love reading, singing, and playing on my guitar.Non-conformists are great to tell all your secrets too. Unlike the grade repeaters, the cheerleaders, or even the gangsters.  I can be a plastic since I make fetch happen. There's the punks and the skaters wearing their scuffed up vans. There's the girl next door and the preachers daughter.  There's the wannabes, the has beens, and those destined for greatness.  The hipsters 'n stuff with their button up shirts. The collectors, the over achievers, need I say more?  Stereotypes are stupid... but they're everywhere you go. Its human nature to judge, so don't pretend like you don't. I can't impress all of you so I guess I'm not going to care. Since cliques are dumb and introductions are cliché.
