Hey, my name is Jeff
YOU KNOW THE PROBLEM THAT I GET FOR THAT
I go to take a job and
The first thing that I say is my name
The manager start laughing
And doesn’t take me seriously

My presentations in the events
Hey my name is Jeff and I’m going to...
They don't let me finish because they start laughing
We lose like 10 minutes for asking me for my name
And laughing

When I entered to a new school
The people come to me and say
Hey new kid what is your name

I honestly hate my name most of the time
I never liked it.
The people confuse my name all the time
Jefferson, Jeffery, Api, Jose
One time I got an award with MY NAME SPELLED WRONG
My name is never on those customized keychains (at least in my country)

I hate my name most of the time
But it has privilege
No one can forget my name
It’s weird to find a person with my name
A White name

At least I can make the people laugh no?
At least one time I make a better day for someone
I hope I can make the others laugh
Because a laugh can fix everything
