Lyrics

Uncorrected personality traits That seem whimsical in a child May prove to be ugly in A fully grown adult Lack of involvement with the father Or over-involvement with the mother Can result in lack of ability To relate to sexual peers And in homosexual leanings Narcissism, transsexuality -- Girls from the waist up Men from the waist down -- Attempts to be your own love object Reconcile your parents to you By becoming both at once Even Marilyn Monroe was a man But this tends to get over looked By our mother-fixated Overweight, sexist media So, uncorrected personality traits That seem whimsical in a child May prove to be ugly in A fully grown adult If you give in to them Every time they cry They will become little tyrants But they won't remember why Then when they are thwarted By people in later life They will become psychotic And they won't make an ideal husband or wife The spoiled baby grows into The escapist teenager who's The adult alchoholic who's The middle-aged suicide Oi So Uncorrected personality traits That seem whimsical in a child May prove to be ugly in A fully grown adult
