I say, my dear Sheila
I believe you’re tied to tight
You have a rather large bump
Which doesn’t look quite right
How dare you, my dear Priscilla
That’s no bump you see
Why, that’s my derriere
And it’s quite a part of me!
Oh forgive me, my dear Sheila
I didn’t mean to speak so crudely
But as you sashay, back and forth
Other women stare, quite rudely
I understand, my dear Priscilla
Let them look, after all, we’re cuties
No need to pay them any mind
They’re jealous of our budding beauty

Sometimes I think we worry too much about dress and fashion, and about body shape, so I like the humour. It is all in the mind, that is where any real beauty is 🙂

I agree. The whole “thin is in” has been out for some time now. However, unhealthy weight is never good. Those are the people I worry about. 🙂
