sometimes there are vultures
they have black feathers and say
"you're beautiful without makeup too"
but vultures are greedy creatures
they've got blood beneath their silken words
because I know that's wrong
to be beautiful without makeup
you gotta have clear skin and cute freckles
you gotta have long legs and eyelash extensions
your skin has to be silk and your hair as boundless as the sea
and when you're as average as I am
that kind of advertising makes me feel worse
so pass me the mascara, honey.
