Pegasissy

“Just be assertive”
You always say
When I chicken out, take the coward’s route, and run away
I swear I’m trying
Hard as I can
But maybe you could try a little just to understand

So busy being bossy
Talking at me
Telling me how I should feel
What to think, what I should be
It’s times like these
That I wish I wasn’t so damn quiet
Will they ever hear me?
Guess I’ll just keep trying

Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh

I thought you wanted
To see me grow
But the truth is you would rather say “I told you so”
Can you honestly
Say it to my face
That if you learned something one time, you’d be completely changed?

Sick of everypony walking
All over me
Getting frustrated
At their apathy
Can we flip the script
Can they walk a few miles on my hooves?
Do you reckon they’d know any better what to do?

Your words can hit or miss me
But no more will I let you see me cry
Call me a pega-sissy
I’ll get it if it means I have to try
Over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again…

One more time!

Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh-oh

“Hey, Doormat
What’s the matter?
You’re a mane six bitch, this should be a cinch, get it together”
You teach at the Friendship School
Shouldn’t you know what to do?
Honestly I wonder what the Princess sees in you!”

Yeah, it stings for a second
But what they don’t see
Is at the very least I’ve learned not to let them get to me
This doormat’s done being stomped flat
Done laying on the floor
I’ll spit the mantras at the mirror
‘Till my throat is hoarse

Your words can hit or miss me
But no more will I let you see me cry
Call me a pega-sissy
Or you could just call me “Fluttershy”
Your words can hit or miss me
But I won’t give up ‘til the day I die
Call me a pega-sissy
I’ll get it if it means I have to try
Over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again...
