Robyn Hitchcock Uncorrected Personality Traits Lyrics

Uncorrected personality traits
That seem whimsical in a child
May prove to be ugly
In a fully grown adult
Lack of involvement with the father
Or overinvolvement with the mother
Can result in lack of ability
To relate to s__ual peers
And in h___sexual leanings
Narcissism, transexuality
Girls from the waist up
Men from the waist down
Attempts to be your own love object
Reconcile your parents to you
By becoming both at once
Even Marilyn Monroe was a man
But this tends to get overlooked
By a mother-fixated
Overweight s__ist media
So uncorrected personality traits
That seem whimsical in a child
May prove to be ugly
In a fully grown adult
If you give in to them
Everytime they cry
They will become little tyrants
But they won't remember why
Then when they are thwarted
By people in later life
They will become psychotic
And they won't make an ideal
Husband or wife
The spoiled baby grows into
The escapist teenager who's
The adult alcoholic who's
The middle-aged suicide
Oy! So
Uncorrected personality traits
That seem whimsical in a child
May prove to be ugly
In a fully grown adult
