Oh little girl

"Oh little girl,"

They say with distain 

Usually followed by a suggestion on how to change myself 

But I don't want to change 

 

"Oh little girl,"

With tears in their eyes 

I know that they only have pity for me

But I don't want their pity

 

"Oh little girl,"

Laughing out my name

I'm a joke to them

But I don't want to be a clown 

 

"Oh little girl," 

"Oh poor baby,"

They claim while clutching their pearls

But they didn't care before 

 

"Oh little girl,"

I think you're weird 

I think you're pathetic 

I think you're a joke 

That's what I'll say to those who claim I'm a mistake 

My rooster all grown up
