Vetoed

I sometimes fail to see just what's the point
Of us not doing what we want to do
Because somebody's nose is out of joint;
Shouldn't that become their problem too?
And since it doesn't hurt them anyway,
It's just a prejudice or two of theirs,
I don't know why I really have to say
That I believe that when somebody cares
About something that doesn't affect them
You ought to listen first to those it does
And if the latter choose not to condemn,
You should leave it exactly as it was.
What we do with each other is our own
And chosen by no one but us alone.
