Pucker up
First day of work and she’s so nervous
mum wants to see what she’s wearing and is making a fuss
there’ll be so much paper work to do
so many new co-workers saying ‘pleased to meet you’
the night before she’d tossed and turned
wondering and wondering, again and again
she hopes she fits in, she hopes she copes well
mum prays this will bring her out of her shell
so mum makes sure to remind her on the first day
something that could possibly be an old wive’s tale
mum is certain that this could do the trick
a little confidence boost by wearing ‘old Hollywood’ red lipstick
and now it’s been a while and our dear girl is doing just fine
this is the first step in her career, from here she’ll climb, and climb and climb
and climb.
