Pop Culture Can Sit on It and Rotate
Maintaining that faux image.
Live up to society's expectations
.
Have *** and be ******.
Don't have ***, but act like you do
.
The boys set the bar,
We want to reach it
.
We wear make-up because it will
Make us pretty
.
We dress **** because it will
Make us hot
.
We want to have *** because it will
Make us normal
.
Does pop culture have the right to
Tell us what's normal
?
If we do not measure up, then
We will put on a show if we have to
.
We hope we look approachable so
Then boys will talk to us
.
But we have to say no and stay pure so
Then boys will want us
.
We are supposed to understand the
Mixed signals and popular beliefs
.
We must ignore our morals, yet claim they
Are what we live by
.
Pornorgraphy, '*******', and risque magazines all tell us that
Guys want us to be a certain way
.
We are supposed to turn ourselves into
What they want
,
And accept that that
Is all that matters
.
