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 sexual peers

And in homosexual leanings

Narcissism, transsexuality,

Girls from the waist up, Men from the waist down

Attempts to be your own love object,

Reconcile both your parents...by becoming both at once.

Even Marilyn Monroe was a man, but

This tends to get overlooked by

Our mother-fixated overweight, sexist 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

Every time 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

Oi

So

Uncorrected personality traits

That seem whimsical in a child

May prove to be ugly in a fully-grown adult<br />
