Trivial Matters

Trivial things always annoy me, at best

I just simply choose to not give my attention

Call it a rabbit or a bunny; I will not split hares with you

Biting my tongue as I am put through a test

Upholding my standards so I will just mention

Trivial things always annoy me, at best

I refuse to argue over similar things; much better things to do

Not interested in your reason or intention

Call it a rabbit or a bunny; I will not split hares with you

Like a mountain climber scaling on his latest quest

I’ll give you an A for effort yet there is no retention

Trivial things always annoy me, at best

Two things, too alike, to debate; try something new

If this were school, you’d be in detention

Call it a rabbit or a bunny; I will not split hares with you

Waving your carrot; you’ve become quite a pest

I am putting this whole topic on suspension

Trivial things always annoy me, at best

Call it a rabbit or a bunny; I will not split hares with you
