Step lightly.

Pucker up.

Suck it in.

Make it fit.

 

Dont cry.

Always smile.

Cross your legs.

Giggle like bells.

 

Respect him.

Care for him.

Pretend you love him.

Do as you're told.

 

Don't have opinions.

Stay young forever.

Hide your emotions.

Just.

Be.

Perfect.

 

Repeat

 

Repeat

 

Repeat
