Uncorrected Personality Traits

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
