Sit like a lady, I heard him say,
Sit like a lady, conscious of my splay.
Sit like a lady— is there prey?

Sit like a lady, keep them at bay,
Sit like a lady, even when I play?

Sit like a lady, fold your grace,
Sit like a lady, know your place.

I am a lady, I said one day—
I splay, I play, and I disobey. (smirk)
Like a lady, I sit, every day.
