Ruth will go around to
Talk the simple talk
Do the standard things
Write the same last name
But oh how she can really sing
She could be so clever if the purpose is enough
To make her feel loved
The weirds do not supply
This payment to her wandering eye
She doesn't like to read
Words on a page
But she'll read from a screen all day
Read the words we say from so far away
Ruth is in the knowledge of
How to wear her clothes
Suggestive as can be
And doesn't want to change
But oh how she's a sight to see
She can tell you all about
The products in her hair
The struggles of teens today
Songs where people stain
and shoot each other such a shame
Songs of the past don't say
Enough of the words at play
And all the words they say are so far away
Ruth is living life like
Beauty is a prize
A functional disguise
To lead the youth astray
But the truth is just so far away
So far, so far away
Says she is fair to all
But not when the uglies call
Kindness is quite the key
But to her it's a mystery
And all the words they say make her dread the day
That everybody stays far away
