MR. BEAN'S FLOWING LOCKS


When magazines print images that aren't real,

they are instructing young girls on how to feel

beautiful models are altered

society's morals have faltered

people need not believe what is seen

we can't all be as perfect as Mr. Bean

young girls look up to these lies

betrayed by their own eyes

we cannot trust what is shown to us

but society refuses to discuss

it's some sort of taboo

that seems impossible to undo

it's unfair to compare

we can't all have that hair

we can't have that skin or that body or that face

society's morals we must replace

see each other as we truly are

show ourselves from near and far

that beauty is not a filter or photoshop

lets make these unrealistic standards stop
