beauty is one word that im sure that youve heard,
still you dont realize the title that youve earned,
the pretty face that you wear,
so that the guy that doesnt care, will hopefully stare,
and get lost in the shallow end of your deep pool,
and slowly ease his way in, learning how to swim,
he can then begin on his goal to score in a game that he'll never win.
you've got prizes, and your hoping there enough
the question is, will he drown when the waters get rough
