The Power of Golden Curls
by Tina L. Jens
Never underestimate the power of golden curls.
Or the strength of a pretty pout.
Never underestimate the effect of lipstick and high heel shoes.
In the war between boys and girls
A coo in your voice and a wiggle in your walk.
Can open doors without a key.
Lashes so long they can knock a man out.
It doesn't matter if you can see.
Skirts so high you can see the whole thigh.
That's how it should be.
That's how the war is won.
The war between boys and girls.
Never underestimate the power of golden curls.
Or the strength of a pretty pout.
Never underestimate the effect of lipstick and high heel shoes.
In the war between boys and girls.
I believe in feminism and ERA, oh yeah.
But the fact remains
You're not treated the same.
If you're a femme fatale or a plain Jane.
That's how the war is won.
The war between boys and girls.
Never underestimate the power of golden curls.
Or the strength of a pretty pout.
Never underestimate the effect of lipstick and high heel shoes.
In the war between boys and girls.
You can shout it's unfair and cut off your long hair.
And buy your suits in the men' s department of Sears.
But I'm here to say there's an easier way.
To win the war between boys and girls.
Cause you should never underestimate the power of golden curls.
Or the strength of a pretty pout.
Never underestimate the effect of lipstick and high heel shoes.
In the war between boys and girls.
That's how the war is won, uh-huh.
The war between boys and girls.
