Bourgeois - Please

Who are these bourgeois bees What makes them better than you and me Why are their noses in the air With fake nails and purchased hair So they wear designer bags Clothes from fashion mags Does real beauty come in a price tag They have attitude for days Ugly and malicious ways Expects a man to pay their way And then wonder why they don’t stay ~ Bourgeois bees ~ Please ~ Stop looking down on the rest Because you think you have what’s best Stop driving a Benz with no ends Always relying on no good men Stop judging a book by its cover Turn the page and see what you discover Stop pretending to live the good life When you know you’re living trife Stop being so conceited and vain It only attracts the fake and lame ~ Bourgeois bees ~ be real ~ Please ~ Lay
