Shopping with a friend

Rita El Khoury

Shopping with a friend is cool There's nothing forbidden, no rule And no parents to say what's suitable Or to tell you what's unaffordable, Actually you don't need to be rich To try on whatever your eyes wish.

Shopping with a friend is funny Even if you don't have money You can try a formal blue shirt With a long gypsy orange skirt Pretend to buy them but act lost Then don't, because they're low-cost.
