The bully gave me, My very own tattoo.
It's not yellow and green, But purple and blue.
He pushed me around, And happy I was not.
But the purple and blue tattoo, Was something he forgot.
I went to school the next day, And I was about to cry,
But the purple and blue tattoo, Was not the reason why.
He threatened to hurt my family, To turn them purple and blue.
So at school the next day, I gave him my own tattoo.
