When You're a Girl

Verse 1:

When you're a pretty girl

Some fools can't hold their tongue it's such a swirl

Criticizing your look saying it's no good

Your dress in a muddle your hairstyle not as it should

Please I know there's a mirror in this world

No need for you to slander to bring me down my worth not unfurled

Verse 2:

When you're a rich girl

A shallow poor lad brags about his trips a shallow twirl

Loan-paid car and mansion he tries to unfurl

Boasting of warm winter like a silly squirrel

He shows off his neighbors high officials in a hurl

What a farce his vanity makes me want to hurl

Verse 3:

When you're a smart girl

With academic pearls some still want to twirl

Nitpicking your major so rude and so curt

When you succeed at work they rush to assert

Greedy to steal glory the story to subvert

Please if you're able do your own don't be a flirt

Verse 4:

You all love preaching like a dad in a blur

Go adopt orphans where war makes hearts stir

I've my own father your chatter is a slur

Stop being haughty it's not a lure

Rather than yammer hit the gym and demur

Thicken your hair grow taller don't be so loathed for sure

Chorus:

These old dudes spread preachiness a tiresome burr

Thinking they're cool but a joke a sad demur

Acting all-knowing looking silly a real demur

Full of self-importance witless a sure demur

Putting on airs teaching around a wrong-way purr

Unaware like frogs croaking with no allure

Lacking self-awareness babbling a dull demur

My memory's good your words in lyrics I'll incur

Outro:

Girls watch their farce and give a scornful demur
