I'd tell her never to worry about her weight,

I'd tell her to make more effort not to be late.

I'd tell her that things at home were about to get rough,

But I'd tell her not to worry - she's real tough.

I'd tell her to enjoy her last years of school,

I'd tell her not to only hang out with people that were 'cool'.

I'd tell her to study a whole lot more,

I'd tell her to walk in the garden barefoot and sometimes sit on the floor.

I'd tell her to be a lot nicer to her mum,

I'd tell her to never be under any guy's thumb.

I'd tell her to not complain about babysitting the girls,

Because of the closeness between us all that unfurls.

I'd tell her she's prettier than she assumes,

I'd tell her never to presume.

I'd tell her not to judge before someone opens their mouth,

I'd tell her to make the most of living in spain and down south.

I'd tell her to make the most of the sun.

But most of all to make sure she always has fun.
