Good Girls
Good Girls
Good girls eat chocolate and hide under bridges
Go to church on Sundays, pray for superman’s position
Join rock-n-roll bands and use a hammer
On men who cross them in any manner
Wear Panama hats, smoke Cuban cigars
Dive into bed where they eat pickles
Good girls get pregnant while gulping down ice cream
Reciting the rosary one bead at a time
Bless themselves after each abortion
Drift off to sleep, snore like the beast
Drink morning coffee black and cold
Before going off to war
Twist themselves into a pretzel
Kiss one another for pleasure
Good girls do as they are told
Grow old, start again like broken records
