Different Does Not Mean Deviant
You may not be the same as me,
But that is quite alright
Because we are not once bizarre
In daytime or at night!
I may not play the game today
The same as you or him,
But that does not mean that I've got
The chances that are slim.
Please don't confuse the friends you choose
With those quite deviant.
Because they will not once fulfill
Your need to be content.
