The Ugly Duckling

Remember when you were in Elementary and Jr. High?
There was this girl you just loved to tease.
You grabbed a feel,
You pulled her hair-
Never having a kind word to say.
Sneaking peeks under her dress.
In Library class you put tacks in her chair-
When she wanted to dance, you said no-
Invited to her Birthday parties.
You didn't want to go-
Then one day she turned into a swan,
The ugly duckling was gone.
"Damn, she's fine!"
You wonder if she'll give you some notice,
But on that I wouldn't bet-
Because all those dirty little things you did to her in school,
And the humiliation when you were younger,
You can believe she didn't forget-
Learning to treat the ladies nice at an early age,
Will make them think about you when it really counts-.
It won't matter whether you're fat or skinny.
Whether you've gained a pound or lost an ounce-
Payback is a mother…
And it can turn out to be your worst fear-
She'll tell you to talk to the hand my man.
You blew your shot.
Where were you when she was trying to be sincere?
