She keels over clutching her chest
Under the pressure of age and circumstances
She'd squandered her youth
Her early adulthood too

She spends nights at the office
Working to the bone
Raising her empire brick by brick
Whilst she has none to bequeath

She choosed the path of ease
Or so she thought
When she married rich and bore him sons
Now stuck with a loveless unfaithful man

She is young and pretty and smart
About to take on life
Pick a path that'll play a part
In what she'll be when she's old and not all that
