the tale of the egg-beater-head girl

once upon a time there was a little
girl who combed her hair with egg beaters
she didn’t know why she did this, she just did

beat beat beat went the beaters

her mom told her no one likes people
who comb their hair with egg beaters
“no one likes people who do that” she said with a scowl

little girl no care, she just did what she did
cuz it felt right but one day she saw some people and she thought “what if they don’t like me, people don’t like people with
egg-beater hair,” but then she meet them and they liked her cuz she was so wholesome and she had friends anyways cuz people don’t care how you comb your hair and she smiled cuz the people like her and she liked them, too.
