Come now sweetie come with me
Ill show you the other half of reality
Tube tops, and skinny jeans
Come one dear, its not as bad as it seems
If you dont want to end up alone
go out there and show off bones
Your bodys shrunk in
Your face is sunk in
Your eyeballs
May just
Roll outa their sockets
your hands are to small
To fit in your pockets
To wear your favorite trends
You'll never touch food again
Nightmares of starving africans
As you turn down your food just to fit in?
Hair falling out
[its okay we'll get extensions]
Lips sag and pout
[we'll buy more injections]
You'll binge
Just to throw up again
And your bones
Will get stuck to your skin
Your fingers are skeletal
And its apprantly regrettable
You'd only turn back
If you only could
Okay so thats not so pretty
Its hollywood
But baby, its reality
In a list
Please tell me what you think

Very nice. It shows all those stupid people what the right and wrong choices are and not to be rail thin. I think most of these people need to think about what kind of incluence they have on girls our age and also think about the people in Africa who have no food and starve.
