Mind your manners

Watch your weight

Be a good boy

Just behave

What's wrong with you?

Settle down.

Keep your two feet on the ground.

Stand up straight

Sit up tall

Never falter

Never fall

Stay in school

Make the grade

Never fail

And never fade



Be a hero

Be a star

Anything but what you are

Find a girl to possess

Always pay, pursue, protect

Be a master

Be a slave

Work your ass into an early grave



But you deserve to be loved

You deserve something real

Time to heal

Time to feel



Daddy's favorite little girl

Dress up in your momma's pearls

Serve us breakfast in her bed

Heard a little kiss on the forehead

You are sugar

You are spice

You are growing up so nice

Paint your nails

Paint your face

Paint around the empty space



Find a man that can provide

Try and fill the hole inside

With a family and a home

Tell yourself you're not alone

Keep your memories of yourself

In a shoebox on a closet shelf



But you deserve to be loved

You deserve something real

Time to heal

Time to feel



But you deserve to be loved

You deserve something real

Time to heal

Time to feel



You deserve to be loved

You deserve to be loved

You deserve to be loved
