Expectations
Why should I be her?
Why can't you love me for me?
Why do i have to fit in a zero?
Why should I be skinny?
What's wrong with my chest?
Why look if i disappoint you?
Why would I shoot botox into my body?
Are you aware that big breasts sag by 32?
Would you quit looking at my bum?
Your eyes can't coax it to grow.
I don't care how big you thought it was
If you don't look, you'll never know.
Why should I paint my face?
Aren't I pretty enough?
Could've sworn that you were scared of clowns...
Who knew being born a girl was so rough...
I feel no need to wear a dress
You can wear one if you'd like
If you don't want to stay then go
That'd make for a more pleasant night
Wise men say that the inside is the sweetest part of a woman
But those men have been dead for years
So if you don't like me the way I am
The door's over here.
