The story of Gail
I have a friend named Gail
Who feels she is too pale
Thinks she cannot get a man
Unless she gets a tan
I understand her feeling
A tan may look appealing
I should tell Gail the story
How looks are transitory
I have a friend named Dee
Who felt the same as she
Wanted to get a man
And got one with her tan
The relationship didn't last
Now Dee is so downcast
Her man didn't find appealing
When her face started peeling
Dee got very shaky
When her face got flaky
She thought she'd use some makeup
But her man said they must break up
I hope that my friend Gail
Will learn a lesson from this tale
What's outside shouldn't count
What's inside's paramount
