Use and Abuse

There are a few of those, who enter talent shows because they want to be, one of those pros Those who do compete, range from young to old and have the strength, to be bright and bold Some people start to think, I don’t like the look of you but looks are deceiving, to not bring out a boo Then out of the blue, you hear a great voice or two and you think to yourself, phew, am I a bent screw Being amazed at your talent, they give you a prize so now it’s time, for you to stand up and rise You need some help, to create a new life so you listen to the experts, who know how to strive They say your looks, need a big make up so we can all feed, our treasure cup Or what we good do, is just use your voice with someone else’s looks, would be our clients’ choice Because the beautiful sell, for them to feast they are allowed to use and abuse, beauty and the beast
