Lyrics:
Some people like hugs, or standing close
teasing or tickling, while others don’t
High fives, hand shakes, kisses, sharing milkshakes
Things people do and say
With others are not ok
Your feelings are important, no matter your size,
So you can set boundaries to clarify

And you can say:
Please stop. I don't like that
I’m feeling uncomfortable. I need more space
Not around me, don’t take it personally,
That’s just a boundary (That’s a boundary!)

Please stop. I don't like that
I’m feeling uncomfortable. I need more space
Not around me, don’t take it personally,
It’s just a boundary (That’s a boundary!)
(That’s a boundary! That’s a boundary)

Everyone has different needs,
And we can't read each other's minds
But if we ask before we do something,
We won’t cross each other’s lines
And we’ll know what is and isn’t fine
And say:

I’ll stop. You don't like that
You’re feeling uncomfortable
You need more space
Not around you, I’m not offended or blue,
That’s just your boundary. That’s your boundary

If someone’s invading your personal space,
… That’s a boundary!
Or doing things that make you feel unsafe,
… That’s a boundary!
Or saying things that make you feel hurt or gross,
… Not in front of me!
Whatever affects you most, you need to say something
“Like what?”

Maybe like:
Please stop. I don't like that
I’m feeling uncomfortable
I need more space
Not around me, don’t take it personally,
That’s just a boundary (That’s a boundary!)

Please stop. I don't like that
I’m feeling uncomfortable
I need more space
Not around me, don’t take it personally,
That’s just a boundary (That’s a boundary!)

I’m not trying to be mean,
That’s just not my scene
‘Cause that’s a boundary. That’s a boundary
That’s a boundary. That’s a boundary!
