This song Absolutely did not go the direction I expected haha. I've had just the "I'm pretty good at DIY" part in my head for about a year and finally decided to turn it into a song thanks to this prompt.

HOWEVER, I always meant for it to be used in regards to my transition (I'm non-binary), this turned into a more political thing somehow?? I'm not mad.

A F#m Dbm D

They say that, if you've got the pieces, you can figure it out I'll build it like an IKEA shelf 'Cause even though everything feels broken these days We just need some dowels and hexagonal screws to make it go away

I'm pretty good at DIY, I'll fix it if we get the chances I'm pretty good at DIY, I'll do anything to make it happen I'm pretty good at DIY, you'll see me out there in the streets With a screwdriver, trying to fix everything!

And they say, It's not that easy, Things are broken at the molecular level But there's nothing so broken that I can't find a YouTube Video To teach me how to put it back together again To teach me how to fix it even better than then

I'm pretty good at DIY, I'll fix it in style I'm pretty good at DIY, I'll put it back together better this time Is there an IKEA manual somewhere online That could tell me how to fix the world We're living in?

Maybe if we all work together The manual says it's better with a friend And maybe if we all get together It'll be even better 'Cause we can fix it, DIY And the "you" is plural in this instance.

'Cause we're, we're pretty good at DIY, We can fix it if we try! It might seem like it's broken beyond repair But there's surely something we can do!

We're pretty good at DIY, We can build it back even better this time! If we all work together, If we all work together, I know we should try!

'Cause we're pretty good at DIY!
