Shut up and sit down!
No one is talking to you!
Keep quiet unless spoken to!
Just who do you think you are?!
Talkin’ smack
and coiling up
and mouthin’ back
unruly, ungrateful
and inappropriate!
I know how you are
and how you get
but we already had this conversation.
I thought we had a deal
and a pact
I thought after all this time
you finally knew how to act.
Maybe I’m to blame
for trying to tame
your wild, indomitable spirit.
The truth is
I’m tired of trying
and I don’t like to yell
so at this point
all I have left to say is
thank the Goddess
for hair gel!
