The Thought This Would Be an Original
they told her to be original
she thought about dyeing her hair with ketchup
it got all sticky and gooey
her pillowcase was a mess now
you will think of something before Halloween said her mother
her father thought all this fuss over hair was silly
he is a man
what does he know?
she wanted to do something unique
something special
something that would get her noticed
she told her girlfriends about her plans
They thought it was adorable
She walked into the dance with eighteen mini-jack-o-lanterns in her hair
thought she would be unique
she would have too
if she had not told so many people
who also thought it was a great idea
