We’re not nice to our girls
We call them ugly, fat, skinny
It’s the first thing we notice
Nothing more, nothing less
We are not nice to our girls
We judge them by age
19 or 69
We tell them they are too this
Too that
Lips too small
Boobs too little
Ass not fat
We are not nice to our girls
First thing we say
Is based off how she looks
Or maybe how she cooks
We are not nice to our girls
Used to be sold off to some man to marry
Back in the day
We treat them the same though
A prize to be won
And a trophy to carry
We are not nice to our girls
Judgment everywhere
Late 20s! When are you getting married
Well you better have babies soon
Before it’s too late
We are not nice to our girls
Is she single?
Why
Oh poor girl
Oh poor her
Why can’t she find a man?
No kids?
Oh why not?
Why NOT?
We are not nice to our girls
We don’t give them room to grow
And spread her wings
In whichever direction SHE chooses
Alone or not
With kids or not
However the f*** she wants
We are not nice to our girls
We don’t give her a choice
Because see
These things
Don’t fall upon the boys
Not married at 30?
You’re still a kid
Not with anyone?
Oh he’s just playing the field
Married a few times?
Oh you’ll get it right
Don’t have kids?
Don’t worry, you have time
Ugly, fat, skinny?
No we don’t look at that too much
It’s about what’s on the inside that counts
Right, girls?
Yet we treat ourselves
So loudly, so meanly
We judge ourselves even more than the TV
We are not nice to our girls
We don’t get the same treatment
The boys walk out with their bellies held high
Yet the girl is scared to show even her thighs
But this body will crumble
And yours it will too
So to judge off the body
Is judging off that which is not true
So notice the girls
For more than how they look
And notice yourself
For more than what you see
Skip the mirror
And look up
High in the sky
Not in the smoke
Through society’s eyes
