I'm only 13
but this is what I know
Beautiful means everything
You gotta have the right clothes
If you don't have makeup
You are ugly
You can be a complete slut
but that just makes you cool
When you're mean to other kids
Your friends just laugh and laugh
I'm only 13
But this is what I know
I'm so terrified
of what
lies in front of me
What happens when I can drive?
Will they tease me because
I drive a little white car
When they're driving convertibles
I'm only 13
But this is what I know
What happens when I'm old enough to date?
Will I get laughed at when I haven't had my first
make-out session
Will I get laughed at cuz I haven't had my first
beer?
What happens when I go off to college?
Will I get laughed at cuz I don't get drunk at parties?
Will I get laughed at cuz I haven't had sex yet?
I'm only 13
But this is what I know
What happens if I don't get asked to prom?
I can't fit into the clothes I need to
Because I aint as skinny as you
My hair is messy and greasy
I have zits that just won't go
And every time I find a shirt that fits
I'm afraid to wear it to school
Because of what they'll say
I'll never be like them
And I'm okay with that
I just wanna be me

But me is not good enough for them
