Perfect
Hair, makeup, clothes, skin,
All need to be perfect for me to fit in.
Nails, shoes, self-esteem, weight,
I need to be perfect so no one can hate.
If I am fat,
I need to be thin,
If I can't do that,
I will not win.
Hair that is silky,
Makeup touched up,
Skin that is milky,
Shoes unscuffed.
Clothes smooth,
Confidence spiked,
Don't always tell the truth,
You have to be liked.
I have to be perfect,,
I have to be liked,
I can't be unkempt,
Or can I?
Hair, makeup, clothes, skin,
All need to be perfect for me to fit in.
Nails, shoes, self-esteem, weight,
I need to be perfect so no one can hate.
I am not perfect,
Neither are you,
Nobody is,
That much we knew.
If you can't accept
I'm sad to say,
You have overstepped,
Goodbye and good day.
Hair, makeup, clothes, skin,
Who cares about fitting in.
Nails, shoes, self-esteem, weight,
Nobody cares who you hate.
