Punching Bag


I'm just a punching bag

Use me when you want.

I'm just a punching bag

Hit me just for fun. 

Hit me when you're angry.

Hit me when you're scared. 

Don't worry if you break me

You have nothing to beware.

I'm just a punching bag

Beat me to the core.

I'm just a punching bag

Hurt me till I'm sore. 

Hurt me when you're sad. 

Hurt me when you're gay.

Don't be concerned if I fall down

I'm not meant to last all day.

You treat me like a punching bag

You don't care how I feel

For I'm your personal punching bag

It's a sad life, but it's real.
