A Woman's Rules

I reflect, as I am turning sixty-two, This I've learnt in life's so-called school, A woman must live by her own rules, What does self-determination mean to you? What is an example of these rules? Well, don't cook if you don't want to, Collect lots of take-away menus, Or, indeed, microwave food, No need to do what you don't want to, What does self-determination mean to you? Find something else you'd like to do! This I've learnt in life's so-called school, A woman must live by her own rules!
