She's beautiful,
Perfect from head to toe,
Happy girl with good grades,
You see a perfect school girl,

What you don't realize is,
Mom and dad are divorced,
She's home alone most of the time,
They buy her stuff to make up for their absence,

You see it as her being spoiled,
Cause to you she's a perfect school girl,
With tons of friends,
Always whispering secrets,
And talking about boys,
She gets home after the day's over,
Puts in her headphones,
Turns it up loud enough to drown out her life,
Then starts her homework,
Cause she's got a role to play,
The next day,

That ladies and gents,
Is your “perfect school girl”.
