Oh my gosh! I was asked to take pictures tonight at an event at the High School. There was a dinner, then a talent show. Of course in my opinion it could have been called talentless show. But that's just me.
I will never understand some parents tho. Invariably at every talent show I have seen there is one little girl singing a song from Grease. Now I like the songs but have none of these parents listened to the lyrics of these songs!!!
Tonight this darling little 6th grade girl sang There Are Worse Things I Could Do while her parents just beamed.
Check out these lyrics and tell me if I am over-reacting. By the way, this show was filmed for the local/school cable channel and will be played over and over again.
There are worse things I could do,
than go with a boy or two
Even though the neighborhood thinks
I'm trashy and no good I suppose it could be true,
but there are worse things I could do I could flirt
with all the guys, smile at them and bat my eyes.
Press against them when we dance,
make them think they stand a chance
and then refuse to see it through,
that's the thing I'd never do. I can stay home every night
Wait around for Mr. Right, take cold showers everyday,
and throw my life away, on a dream that won't come true
I could hurt someone like me, out of spite or jealousy,
I don't steal and I don't lie, but I can feel and I cry
In fact I'll bet you never knew, but to cry in front of you,
that's the worse thing I could do.
I guess I'm just getting old!!
