To Be Loved

Watch your manners
 Watch your weight
 Be a good boy
 Just behave
 What's wrong with you?
 Settle down.
 Keeping two feet on the ground.
 Sit up straight
 Stand up tall
 Never falter
 Never fall
 Stay in school
 Make the grade
 Never fail
 And never fade
 Be a hero
 Be a star
 Anything but what you are
 Find a girl to possess
 Always pay, pursue, protect
 Be a master
 Be a slave
 Work your ass into an early grave
 But you deserve to be loved
 You deserve something real
 Time to heal
 Time to feel
 Daddy's favorite little girl
 Dress up in your momma's pearls
 Serve us breakfast stay'n in bed
 Earn a little kiss on the forehead
 You are sugar
 You are spice
 You are growing up so nice
 Paint your nails
 Paint your face
 Paint around the empty space
 Find a man that can provide
 Try and fill the hole inside
 With a family and a home
 Tell yourself you're not alone
 Keep your memories of yourself
 In a shoebox on a closet shelf
 But you deserve to be loved
 You deserve something real
 Time to heal
 Time to feel
 But you deserve to be loved
 You deserve something real
 Time to heal
 Time to feel
 You deserve to be loved
 You deserve to be loved
 You deserve to be loved
