I a Big Gurl Now!
I a big gurl now!
Damn it!
Purple play dough is pretty but I DON'T eat it!
When someone tells me to throw a bottle of Gatorade
in the road I ignore them
'cause I know better than to cause truble on the asphalt
and I absolutely DO NOT hang out on the monkey bars
when I'm wearing a dress!
I know the boys just want to see my days of the week
panties!
bastards!
I know better than to specify my special wish order at
McDonald's cause the underpaid overworked employees
don't care how I want my burger
they'll spit on the meat, anyway
and give me day old fries
I don't close my eyes when I kiss
I don't throw quarters in fountains and make a wish
I wash my hands with anti-bacterial soap
and hope for the best
I can see right through you, darlin'
I know your kind
line forms on the right, babe...I a big gurl now.
