No, I don't watch TV much
too many pretty people
even the ugly ones
are better looking than
the lumps and frumps around here
doesn't seem right
pretending about stuff like that
gives people wrong ideas
like, if you are pretty
you can act
if you ain't
you can't do squat
even if it's true
it's not cool
to guys
who look like us!
