care about her weight because well she's

ugly get a college education bimbo you

need to open up your brain a little yeah

all sizes are beautiful but a stupid

personality like yours is quite ugly

everyone threw their phones aside and

she ran away crying i was so grateful

for how everyone stood up for me but i

still felt depressed and just wished i

could be thinner i didn't study well and
