Sossity: You're a Woman |
| Hello you straight-laced lady, |
| dressed in white but your shoes aren’t clean. |
| Painted them up with polish |
| in the hope we can’t see where you’ve been. |
| The smiling face that you’ve worn |
| to greet me rising at morning -- |
| sent me out to work for my score. |
| Please me and say what it’s for. |
| Give me the straight-laced promise |
| and not the pathetic lie. |
| Tie me down with your ribbons |
| and sulk when I ask you why. |
| Your Sunday paper voice cries |
| demanding truths I deny. |
| The bitter-sweet kiss you pretended |
| is offered, our affair mended. |
| Sossity: You’re a woman. |
| Society: You’re a woman. |
| All of the tears you’re wasting |
| are for yourself and not for me. |
| It’s sad to know you’re aging |
| Sadder still to admit I’m free. |
| Your immature physical toy has grown, |
| too young to enjoy at last your straight-laced agreement: |
| woman, you were too old for me. |
| Sossity: You’re a woman. |
| Society: You’re a woman. |
