Contradiction: The Reverse


WE can't live with them,
We can't live without them,
Our world is overflowing with them,
But most of them hardly come close to the value of a precious gem.

They flatter us with sweet compliments,
They shower us with luxurious gifts and presents,
They think that they are happening, macho and hot,
They don't do anything but act like some big shots!

The good old days are definitely a distance away,
Those with courtesy that'd make our great grandparents proud are so rare
today,
They chase us, they court us and expect us to jump straight into bed,
If they think we are that cheap, they need some serious aid.

There's no need for us to pretend to be nice and cute,
Because if you care to look close enough, that's the way we are, dude!
If we aren't nice and cute, will they even consider giving hot pursuit?
After all, we are just dancing to the tune of your flute.

We never said that you are boring and we are happening,
We just said that we are enjoying life to its last blissful drop while you
sit there gaping,
And yes, we can't stop complaining,
How can we, when you constantly whine for some spoon-feeding.

To ban them or to accept them?
They started the issue, the whole lot of them,
They blame it on their raging hormones, help them God, poor men!
We are always contented with ourselves, hormones and all, proud to be women!
