Uncorrected Personality Traits - Robyn Hitchcock

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 over-involvement with the mother

Can result in lack of ability to relate to sexual peers

And in homosexual 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 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.

(Oy!)

So, uncorrected personality traits that seem whimsical in a child

May prove to be ugly in a fully grown adult
