When will you learn??



How cheap can a person be I wonder?
Why can't she try to hinder
is it because of pleasure
Or maybe she's just a beginner

her behavior can never be praise
doesn't she have dignity, price and pride?
To disgrace is to put mud in family face
If I were them, I just chuck you aside

Wake up my dearie wake up
When I say this don't you ask me to shut up
Because now you are a grown up
But still behave like a baby in the tub

What you'll lost first is your friends
Next will be your opportunity & your chance
No longer family too will be gone in a glance
What's left is you in your dream & your trance
