A poem about pressure put on teen girls by major companies
She is only seventeen,
The whole world on her back,
Just yesterday Maybelline
Claimed that she is fat

She would never hurt a fly,
A cat, a bird, a duckling
The other day EMI
Said she's fucking ugly

She's well into magazines,
Cosmo-Girls her fav,
Dreams of little size 8 jeans,
And doesn't eat for days

She is only seventeen,
Shouldn't happen at that age,
A piece of rope, a goodbye note,
She will hang for days
