a relevant question

i look hard, then harder still,
and yes, it is indeed her,
tiny, probably weighs as much as a tic-tac,
intense, self-absorbed, superficial,
she is whippet-thin and sharp as a pin

it's the result of discriminating taste,
by the trampy clothes she wears
and a cute blonde bob
that falls across her face, just so

she looks spoiled, rotten to the core, moneyed,
a killer smile that could light-up the night,
seemingly unforgivable, cruel even,
a condition of intense public interest,
the excitement cause by her sweet, blue-eyed face
and all this at an early age, she’s got it, she knows it too

but if she were a man with a gun
rather than a woman with an outrageous attitude,
i think i can imagine her walking into a disco
and killing everyone, a perfect example of her style, indeed

a little girl with big lusts,
she seems to be acting out trashy B-movie roles,
sexy vamp, abused housewife, sobbing teenager,
the poor man's Gwen Stefani,
the penniless beggar's Courtney Love

i never wanted to hit somebody
over the head with the message,
if you don't get it, you don't get it,
i ask her, what kind of person are you?
she replies, i don't know if that is even a relevant question
