I’m an Aspie brave and true
I’m way more unique than you

I see the world from a different view
Give me a while to explain it to you

I might annoy you to heck
But I’ll be a great friend if you give me a sec

Mom says I have sensory integration
That’s why I’m full of this information

When the lights are up too high
My head aches far beyond the sky

If you yell and give a shriek
You’d better watch out ’cause I may freak

When you touch me, I feel nervous and cold
It’s hard to let my feelings unfold

My sniffer’s never on the blink
It’s one of the reasons I always think

I don’t understand many social cues
But after a while I’ll learn the rules

I don’t fit in to the social cliques
But with my close friends I will stick

Kids say this, Kids say that
It changes so much what’s up with that?

School can be really tough
You never know if you have the right stuff

Teachers help and teachers try
Sometimes it’s so overwhelming I may cry

How the heck do I play the role
When teachers expect you to answer with “yes, no,
or si” en Español

I’m an Aspie brave and true
It’s hard for me to fit in here how about you?
