Analysis of She Eats Boys for Breakfast iii
She eats boys for breakfast, chews them up,
Spits them out and stomps all over them.
Lets them know their place, with a
Smile on her face because she knows she’s right
She eats boys for breakfast, leaves them,
In the dust. She’s brilliant and even
The men want her. She entertains
None of that, obviously, she doesn’t stand
For that sort of inappropriate behavior
She is the queen, the one who knows best,
And she won't let you forget it,
She’s ground breaking and modest and
Too good for me, too good for all of them
She’s the brightest shining star this
Side of the galaxy, and when she
Eats boys for breakfast,
She chews quietly
