People can be petty
Females bring it with their pretty

All around, spreading rumors
Monstrous little tumors

Why do people say such things
They can cause such a sting

Words said jokingly
Come out hurtfully

Let us laugh and join in
Although someone might get kicked in the shin

Ladies, don’t be petty
Stick with pretty

Girls can be petty and spread hurtful rumors. Don't do it. It could come back and bite you. Stay pretty, ladies.
