Get over cute, because you’ll be cute until you’re about 45… and then you’ll just be an old broad…and there’ll be a bunch of 18 to 40-year-olds who are cuter than you are…and at that point you’ll say, "I want that promotion"…and somebody will say to you, "Well, but see, I don’t think of you as qualified, I just think of you as cute." Get over cute. Get competent. Get trained. Get capable. Get over cute.” - Jane Elliott
lyrics
Your hair doesn't work, and nor do your teeth
you're making it worse by trying to be sweet
it's supposed to be pert, instead it's stupidly neat
you're an idiot painted like doll
Here you go again pushing your hair around
here you go again trying to be sweet
here you go again, with your spatula
you're an idiot painted like a doll
Hit it
Your hair doesn't work
and nor do your teeth
you're making it worse by trying to be sweet
it's supposed to be pert - instead it's obscenely neat
you're an idiot painted like a doll
Hit it hit it
Get up off the floor - get over cute!
