A flash of pink A purple haze The peony days...
Cellphones Lipstick Magazines
Open hate and silent screams
Blusher Sparkles Fairy lights
Ones pain, another's delight
Boys Toys High-heeled shoes
Beggars aren't allowed to choose
Fake tan Hair dye Miniskirts
Learn to fake and flaunt and flirt
iPhones Boyfriends Frills and lace
Shut your mouth and learn your place
Meeting Feelings Wedding bells
After all, your body's yours to sell
White dress Aisle Honeymoon
You won't be yourself quite soon
Conception Pregnant Childbirth
Boundless joy and endless mirth
A magical Moment Been and gone
First a daughter, then a son
By this Time you're Tired out
All they do us scream and shout
You stop And sit And reminisce
You wonder how it came to this
A flash Of pink A purple haze
Long gone are the peony days...
