I think I'm turning Japanese

when I wake up in the morning
i look drastically different
i look oriental
if you want the truth

i'm a real mess
puffy all over
eyes like slits

am I the only one?
who mysteriously morphs
to a different race
as I lay sleeping?

a lot of people
at school
could never understand
why i NEED to shower in the morn

for some reason
the shower transforms me
back to my beautiful
gorgeous
western european mixed self

don't ask me to explain it
