Jane Fonda
1981 was a year I’ll always remember
The movie “On Golden Pond” debuted
I saw it on the big screen
It was nice nothing special
Right up until that horrific scene
The one that changed our lives forever
My jaw suddenly dropped
Instantly realizing its significance
The camera ever so slowly zoomed in
From ever so far and ever so deviously
Closer and Closer
On Jane Fonda in her mid-forties
Sporting a skimpy bikini
Revolutionizing expectations forever
Life as we knew it ended that day
Ever since then
Women have been heard muttering
Across the land
See what you did, Jane Fonda
