Cherry Bomb

Whoever said that girls just want to have fun?
This slutty music is a little overdone
"Here comes 'Cherry Bomb'"
They're cheering for me
I huff in disgust,
"Take it easy"

I strut onto the stage,
They're all looking at me
In this little button down shirt,
And a mini skirt that makes it feel breezy
I give a big smile to mask the pain
Every bit of dignity I lose is their gain

The pole is my enemy..
The pole is my friend
I do splits and tricks under it
While winking at random men
Off goes that mini skirt,
When will it ever end?

It's raining though
And they're cheering me on
I give a giggle and that little blouse is gone
"Uh oh",
I say with a flinching grin
I might as well just let them win

By the end of the night,
I had sat on five men
Giving them my signature cherry flavored kiss
The place smelled of alcohol
And I smelled of sin

I walk through my doors,
And kiss my son on the head
"Sweet dreams, Jacob"
Three in the morning.. I'm off to bed
I just want him to have the life I never had
