altaira hatton - It Must Be Madness

she is too happy
not with that body!

She is too strong
it's unbecoming, wrong!

she is too bright
cover that light!

Why, she laughs! She dances! She holds flings; light romances!
A girl, a woman, hasn't she shame? She is shackled to a frame,
bent, lame. Her life should be pain, hasn't she been told? It
is not for her to be so bold.

It must be madness
