Every week in preschool
A winner was picked
Showered in admiration
And given special prizes
It had been me the previous week
Oh, how I wanted it again
It was selected by an elimination process
And usually based around
Colors of the rainbow
This week was purple
But alas I had no purple to wear
Arts and crafts skills to the rescue
I wore a purple rectangle around my neck
Made with construction paper
Tied with some string I found lying around
And was quite proud of myself
Until the teacher announced
The students eliminated
Were the ones who WERE wearing purple
Damn you purple square
Damn you
