SWEET PRETTY ART TEACHER


I broke my pen and I felt so little

Red came off my brush

And as I gazed at the blue sky and green trees
I felt erased

Sweet pretty art teacher
Self-esteem destroyer

Sweet pretty art teacher
Always praising beauty and superficiality
But I was kind of ugly
So I pictured her as a Nazi

If you could have seen my inner scenery
You would have seen ravenous cats eating at your beauty

I know the world is in her image
But sometimes I still cry in rage
Even though I occasionally like what I write on my page


If you could have seen my inner scenery
You would have seen ravenous cats eating at your beauty


I know the world is in her image
But sometimes I still cry in rage
Even though I occasionally like what I write on my page
