The Bruised Girl
This one I got when I
fell down the stairs after
Maths yesterday and this
one happened Tuesday
the door slammed on
my face I put an ice-pack
straight on it but it didn’t
do much good and I
feel pretty dumb about
this one on my shoulder
my bra strap did that oh
and this one on my leg
I bumped into a desk I’m
just real clumsy so don’t
you worry about me Miss
I bruise easy that’s all
from The Learning Curve (2002)
