PRETTY PIGTAILED GIRL



ED GIRL

GIRL IT'S YOUR WORLD SO GIVE YOURSELF A TWIRL
DANCE TO YOUR OWN TUNE BECAUSE IF NOT CAUTIOUS GIRLHOOD WILL END SOON
PLEASE DON'T HAVE NO WORRY TO HAVE CURVES AND NERVES THAT WILL ONLY LEAD TO WORRY
EMBRACE EMBRACE THE CHUBBY OF YOUR FACE
YELL TO THE KIDS IT'S TIME WE HAVE A RACE
GO GRAB THE ROPE IT'S TIME SO JUMP
YELL TO MAMA ‘“ WE ARE HUNGRY IS IT TIME FOR LUNCH?”
GOOD GRADES COMES WITH GOOD FOCUS
YES LITTLE GIRL PRINCESSES AND FAIRIES ARE REAL HOCUS POCUS
ITS OK TO GET DIRTY AND ROLL AND THE SAND
IF EVERYTHING WERE TO GET TOSSED UP WHERE WOULD IT LAND?
SO DITCH THE EXPECTATIONS AND EMBRACE THE CLUMSINESS OF RUNNING DOWN HILLS
NO HEELS  NO GLOSS NO PANTIES THAT FLOSS
BECAUSE CHILDHOOD LOST HAS ITS OWN INVALUABLE COST
