I Guess I Have to Change
A gnawing hunger bites by stomach, but if I eat I’ll get fat
 
 There is a zit on my face; I guess I have to wear a paper bag over my face.
 
 My hair has a little frizz in it; I guess it’s time to wear a wig.
 
 My eyes aren’t big; I guess I have to get plastic surgery.
 
 I’m not tall, so I guess I have to wear heels the rest of my life.
 
 I’m not flexible; I guess it’s time to take ballet lessons
 
 I’m not a s***; I guess I better count on not being accepted by society.
 
 Why does society expect women to be perfect?
 
 It just makes it harder to be a girl.
 
 Join me if you are against the media making girls everywhere lose their self-esteem.
 
 Together, we can make a difference.
