Selfie

Society fears

Us looking in mirrors

And liking what we see

Posting 'selfies' online

Is a narcissistic crime

Because we're not allowed to be

Proud of how we look

'Cause in society's book

Insecurity plus jealousy equals pay

And when we cry

We're likely to buy

And the world wants us that way
