To Be Different From Others

To be different from others is never a shame How boring we would be if we all were the same If on anything we never could disagree How utterly boring as people we would be People are born to be tribal anthropologists say And many are followers and some lead the way And those without a tribe always on their own To those in the majority as loners are known And though you may be an outsider and live in your own way And of anyone an untrue thing do never say Then as a person you are doing okay And respect to you for who you are others ought to pay And to be different from others is never a shame How boring we would be if we all were the same.
