  • Ever since I was a little girl
    I only wanted to be sexy
    Nine years old, tryna wax my legs with tape
    There were some things only I can see
    A little spot that can't be lifted
    On my left hand, dig in like a car key

    So you see
    I've been having a horrible time of late
    I get none of your sympathy
    But all of the pain hits and the fog lifts
    And then it's too much for therapy
    Oh, baby, heed my solution
    And take a sexy picture
    Take a sexy picture of me
    And make me look sixteen

    Listen

    I did the butcher, I did the baker
    I did the home and the family maker
    I did school girl fantasies
    Oh, I did leg things and hand stuff
    And single woman banter
    Now tell me, what was in it for me?

    Oh, I've been having a horrible time of late
    I get none of your sympathy
    But all of the pain hits and the fog lifts
    And then it's too much for therapy
    Oh, baby, heed my solution
    And take a sexy picture
    Take a sexy picture of me
    And make me look fifteen

    You haven't looked at me the same since I turned twenty-seven
    Where goes my potential? Oh, she's up in heaven
    Rest in peace to any chance of me
    Dating within the station
    Ah-ah, ooh-ooh, ah-ah, ooh-ooh
    And no doctor or pope can grant diagnosis
    I've peeled through the forums
    And there's no cure for old sis
    But here's a message to the party girls
    Dragged out by their ankles
    I'm here if you need me, deep in your afters

    Oh, I've been having a horrible time of late
    I get none of your sympathy
    But all of the pain hits and the fog lifts
    And then it's too much for therapy
    Oh, baby, heed my solution
    And take a sexy picture
    Take a sexy picture
    Can't you see me wither?
    Take a sexy picture of me

    And make me look fourteen, oh
    Or like ten, or like five
    Or like two, like a baby
    Whoever it is that you're gonna love
    So you'll be nice to me Writer/s: Ciara Thompson
