Bottle it up, plaster on a smile,
Focus on grace, focus on style.
If you have a disagreement, don't say it aloud,
For if you do, your friends will frown.
A lady does not whine or show her true feelings.
If she does, the retorts will leave her reeling.
It's better to suck it up, to not give a care,
To just accept the fact that life isn't fair.
These days, everyone is selfish and rude,
Yet no one expects you to be, too.
Bottle it up, plaster on a smile,
Just focus on grace, just focus on style.
