Perfection

Perfection is expected in everything I make

I am not allowed a single mistake

I am not allowed to slip and fall

Or just sit in a corner and bawl

I am to understand

While executing the master plan

If I answer wrong

Then they will tell me I don't belong

I must stand proud

And find a way to lead the crowd

I must behave like a soldier

Growing ever bolder

I can't trip up now

After all I don't know how

So now I sit here wide awake

Learning how to cover up my mistakes
