A poem about all narcissitic people of the world. Let's face it, we all are.
If I gave you a crown you'd whine and complain;
you'd say it was too small, the lamest of the lame!
It's not like it'd fit that big head of yours anyway,
with your egomaniac head in the cloud haze.

If it wasn't for Narcissus they'd write you into mythology,
with the way you stare in the mirror at your gorgeous biology.
The only problem with that is, it'd make you even more vain!
It doesn't matter if it's bad, you'll take any kind of fame.

So you think you're better than everyone else, is that true?
I mean, you talk about yourself until your face is blue.
That's fine, whatever, hold your head high.
I'm going to laugh, though, when you jump off a cliff because you insist you can fly.

I don't care what you say, humble is the new proud!
Humility is awesome, scream it loud!
Besides, that arrogance of yours, kind of makes you an eyesore,
and without the hotness, well, you're kind of a bore.
