Self Talk

Today is the day
To get things done
Come on girl
I know you have it in you
Roll your sleeves up
There's dishes to be washed
And laundry to be spun
There's checks to be written
And groceries to be picked up
Your hairs all matted 
And oh my god!
You look like an episode 
of the walking dead
Sew back on your skin
And walk straight
for god's sake
And put on some makeup
You can't look a fright
When your fighting
For your right
To move on and heal
Come on girl 
I know you have it in you
Go through your closet
Pick out your favorite outfit
And a matching pair of high heels
Girls work best 
When they feel their sexiest
Come on girl
I know you have it in you
Slip into some bubbles
And get all washed up
While singing your
freeing songs
adding drums and percussions
Come on girl
I know you have it in you
Roll your sleeves up
And let's get to 
this work of 
getting things done
