Some Girls

Verse 1
Some girls want daddy's attention
Some girls need his affection
They yearn and strive for both
But they are neglected
Some girls act out in the worst way
With drugs, sex, and alcohol
Throw in a bit of rock and roll
And that is the worst mix
Some girls wish that they were still a child
Because they can't handle the pressure of being a teenager

Verse 2
Some girls think that they are fat
Some girls think they're ugly
The media ans society present false body images
Some develop eating disorders
Some exercise to the extreme
And some commit suicide
Thinking that's the solution
Some girls wish that they had a friend
Because there is no one that they can relate to
That they can confide in

Bridge
Some girls wish that they could just be happy
Some girls wish that they were seen as being normal
Some girls just want to live

Chorus 1
Some girls end up on the streets
Selling themselves for money
They get into a cycle of abuse
And have a hard time getting out
Some are damaged beyond repair
Some need to be saved from themselves
They are tired and scared, they are lonely
Some don't know where to turn for help
Some of these girls might have been an acquaintance to you
Some of these girls might even be related to you

Chorus 2
Some girls end up on the streets
Selling themselves for money
They get into a cycle of abuse
And have a hard time getting out
Some are damaged beyond repair
Some need to be saved from themselves
They are tired and scared, they are lonely
Some don't know where to turn for help
Some of these girls might have been an acquaintance to you
Some of these girls might even be related to you
Some of these girls work with you every day
Some of these girls go to church
And kneel down and pray for a better life
