This Makes Me Yucky

So, there's this kid And he starts school And he makes his friends And he gets good grades And he starts to notice Growing up out of the ground all around him are these monoliths These- these huge Ghosts Their heads, they're the size of semi trucks Jutting out of the ground all around him And he finds that only he can see them! Anyone else would be scared But this kid thought to himself "I'm special! I'm important!" "These big ghosts all around are some sort of gift!" And he sees with each A+ And new friend and poem he writes These gigantic ghosts grow taller "I must be helping them, and they're helping me." Right? So he gets a little older And he's thriving And he can see the ghosts' elbows now High school starts And he goes to a different school than his friends "More opportunities" he thinks The first day He tells a joke to break the ice With the first person who looks nice to him And it falls flat The other kid wanders off And later, whispers and spreads rumors about the new weirdo And his weird jokes When our boy leaves school that day He notices these massive ghosts' hands Are freed from the ground "What did I do?" he thinks The next day He steps on someone's shoes They chew him out And now the ghosts are out up to their thighs "How am I helping them?" "I'm special, right?" "They're climbing out thanks to me, right?" Soon they're standing so tall He has to look straight up to see them And they're getting closer Now it's every F And every friend he can't make Every time he's embarrassed, it- Puts these massive ghosts just a little bit closer to him now Leaning down and looking at him By the end of school He can smell their breath And by the time he can drink He's surrounded everywhere he looks By these massive heads all around him Stinking And whispering real quiet And looking right at him One day he spills his drink on the ground And suddenly he can understand the whispering He looks up from the floor And the mouth of a ghost is just about touching him And it says "Nothing you did made any difference."
