I want to be a little girl forever For surely I would never have to grow old Never have to face ridicule in silence I could pull hair and shout mean words "Well your ugly, and don't smell nice either!" Or, "I didn't want to play anyway your a cheater" I could whine and everyone would find me adorable I could cry without guilt and Love without heartbreak Because to a little girl every man could be a hero
I could paint my nails nine colors, And ask for cookies at breakfast Wear my pajamas to school and leave bread crumbs on T-shirts
Being a little girl would be lovely Getting carried from place to place Falling asleep wherever I pleased
No more hiding No more endless rules For we all know to a little girl rules are for fools I would be rotten and I could be spoiled But come morning no one could love me more.
While selfish and at sometimes cruel Little girls are sweet at heart and genuine too! I could indulge my habits and play pretend Instead of go to work and have people that depend On my steady hands or achey feet
No more bills! No more lies! I could build sand castles and pretend to fly There would be space adventures and tons of books to read! Yes to be a little girl again would be rather neat.
To my niece who I hope gets to enjoy all of these things.
