Sylvia Chidi - If I were a girl

Описание

If I were a girl I'll wake up each day I'll tell myself to go and learn at school No fancy mini-skirts, No acting cool as a fool I'll play it safe with a boy Simple jokes and simple joys I’ll stand-up for only love and equality Not for some stupid momentary flattery These silly lines inspire only immorality If I were a girl I think you would understand How it feels to be constantly disrespected Treated as a feminine reject even if an intellect Thought off often as a sexual object or project I swear I’d be a much tougher woman I'll take out my dustpan, Let everyone Start slowly again from where it all began But I’m just a girl It feels like a pitiful spell To be forever taken for granted Whether I’m multi-skilled or talented If I were a girl There will be no wedding bells Until I'm completely educated as well I'll always take care of me I'll always hold onto dreams And any boy who says he loves me Will have to work with me as a team But I’m just a girl And I don’t want a life of hell I want to play with cars and not just dolls And besides a boy I always want to be an equal Copyright 2008 - Sylvia Chidi Sylvia Chidi poemhunter.com/poem/if-i-were-a-girl/
