I am still a little girl
Don’t patronize me
Don’t buy my wares
I don’t wish to work
On this long, long road.
I need to learn
To play with words
And earn bright future
In this bleak, damp world
If you buy my wares
I might learn that
There is no greed to study
To earn a bread
Ignorant I will be
With no phrases to delight
How can you empower me,
If I can’t spell it right?
Don’t encourage me to work
Help me see the light,
I am just a little girl
Please save me from this plight.
