Girls and Boys

GIRLS AND BOYS

Girls used to only be taught to be lady like and clean

Boys are seen as tough especially when they say what they mean

Girls are seen as demure if they don’t make too much noise

While boys are allowed to be violent you can see it in their toys

Girls should keep their rooms organized and neat

If boys run around without shoes on their dirty feet

Girls today aren’t taught to cook anymore or set the table

Look at boys who are inside playing video games and watching cable

Are girls really more intelligent just because they’re quiet?

Are boys more virile only when they cause a riot?

Do Girls any longer primp like the once famous Betty Grable?

Or are Boys grooming themselves like the now deceased Clark Gable

Girls grown up like Martha Stewart, for lying can be sent to jail

But boys like Snoop Dogg or Lion while accused of murder only left a paper trail

Girls are skewed as less feminine for working which shouldn’t be one would think

And boys really aren’t less masculine just for wearing the color pink

Girls please tell them who you want to become maybe an actor

Boys let them know you choose a career in make up like the famous Max Factor

Girls can play sports for cramps in our lockers we have Midol

And boys who want to sing can audition for American Idol

Yes girls and boys have many differences exploited for profit by us

This is why we grow up to become men from mars and women from Venus
