The right is considered normal
In that case, I am abnormal
For I am left-handed
Oh the horror of it all!
Would that explain my actions
Of being twisted and dark?

They say lefties have the most talent
Would be true, I guess
A distant leftie relative of mine
Is a writer, of the novel kind
My leftie boyfriend is a guitarist
In a successful thrash/goth/dark metal band

The left is the correct course for me
It is the proper balance
Most of my piercings are left-orientated
Except for the ones in the centre
And the weird thing is
My left eye is the strongest!

But one thing that annoys me
Is right-handed musicians
Rightie guitarists stay the same
Leftie guitarists can change to suit
Like myself and my Squishy
Righties don't realise that lefties are smart!

In conclusion, my dear righties
Never underestimate the lefties
We can change our ways, or not
Write with the left, write with the right
For everyone is born a rightie
But the best overcome it
