Pretend You Don't See HerA Poem by authorised1960Teenage nastiness...Pretend you don't see her Pretend she's not there Walk right past her Because we really don't care.
Don’t look, don’t listen Don’t giggle, don’t speak Pay no attention Don’t even peek
Look at her hair! Look at her face! Isn't she a mess? Isn't she a disgrace!
She's got no sense of fashion No sense of style Look at her clothes Aren't they just vile!
She's not one of us She's different, as can be seen She makes it so easy For us to be mean
She's not like us: Pretty and rich She's plain and she's geeky Just looking at her makes me itch.
Pretend you don't see her Pretend she's not there I know it upsets her But I just don't care!
I'm far too important Pretty and popular With my looks and my body I know I'll go far
She'll be a nobody All of her life Frumpy and boring A mother and housewife.
I'll be a Princess Fabulously rich and famous A belle of society with a Handsome husband and big house.
She'll be a drudge A servant, a slave Working herself into A very early grave.
Really, don't give her the time To acknowledge she exists When she's dead and gone She won't even be missed.
It's best to pretend you don't see her And don't catch her eye. If you do that you might Just see her cry.
