The pressures put upon us women
It’s like there are no chances given
We must be pretty, must stay youthful
Take drastic measures? Must be truthful!
As years advance you want us proud
But excess wrinkles not allowed!
We hope the change is imperceptible
But getting old is just inevitable
Our chins get jowly, noses bulbous
Our eyelids droop, our skin gets porous
What time does to us is unlawful!
Who asked to be post-menopausal!?
I say to this, I’m frickin’ tired
Dismissed as if my life’s expired
Don’t make me think I need be fixed
To spend my cash on magic tricks
I’ll let my hair go gray and wiry
But keep my temper fierce and fiery
We’ll start a trend that’s kinda radical
If we just let ourselves age natural
That men can just let all things go
To bulge and sag from head to toe
That double standard has us fumin’
Just leave us be, we’re only human…
