Day after day Week after week Month after month Year after year You've shown the world How not to be an employer Treating your employees like slaves Demeaning them with insults That were way below the belt Denying them their basic pay For which they have braved storms Scaled towering mountain peaks And dived to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean And firing a few of them For no justifiable reason whatsoever Today, however You have sunk to a new low It is bad enough to not pay your employees But to accuse them of not doing their jobs And lie to their faces' That you've been paying them properly Is despicable to the core And goes on to show That you are nothing more Than a rat in the gutter But then, the rat at least deserves to be put out of its misery You, on the other hand Deserve to rot in the confines of Tihar Jail For a very very long time Of course, we all know the famous saying An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind But it applies only to human beings You are not one

Sinking To New Lows
these models in magazines and billboards set unrealistic expectations for young girls thinking they need to starve themselves just to get the flat stomach and hourglass figure envying every girl they see who they view as prettier than them going to such extremes to fit the rapidly changing beauty standards leaving their youthful bodies behind to go under the knife and inject their face with fillers just to be called beautiful to feel beautiful but then the standards change and they don't feel beautiful anymore they do more procedures and exercise until they drop until the standards are to be natural and it feels like it was all for nothing that they'll never be enough
