Smile for the Camera

Smile for the camera,

Smile for the fans,

One thousands followers on your Instagram!

 

Boys of all ages,

Ogling at loose breasts,

Just tuck your elbows in at your chest.

 

Stretch your neck up high,

Darling don't be shy,

The more skin they see,

The more likes you receive.

 

Vanity is a virtue,

And baby you're gonna work it,

Soaking up the compliments like a towel in water,

Filling that void with the love of strangers:

 

But these compliments are worth it,

They make up for the slurs you hear on the streets,

“Nice Ass!”, “Damn baby!”, ”Jail bait!”, “Come home with me!”

Because a pair of breasts come with a price,

You're just a piece of ass,

And they'll show you a good night.

 

Forget about that blood you have rushing under your skin,

Let go of the aspects that make you human,

Work what you've got,

Let him buy you a drink,

What's the point of being hot if you actually have to think?

 

Chin up,

Back arched,

Bite your lip,

For twenty hearts!

 

Your #ootd gets more likes than your project in art,

Because you're body is the real masterpiece,

Who cares about that scholarship.

 

Smile for the camera,

Smile for the fans,

Smile for the strangers on your Instagram.
