3rd biggest party school
Thats what the shirts say
Its a cool august night
Or, it seems out my window
I can hear people talk
I can hear people laugh
Outside on the sidewalks
I sit here and suppose
I guess the skinny ones
Are somehow entitled
But I'm a fat girl
In University Park
They do not invite me
To the classic Greek nights
They don't even see me
In fact, I don't even know
If I still exist
I know I'm still visible
Apparently too much
Which is why I sit here now
I guess this sober sadness
Is the only possible state
For a fat girl like me
In University Park
I had this friend once
Before I was here
I was so excited
But the pictures stare
Hes with a pretty girl
A green-eyed brunette
Just like me
But shes inches taller
And a quarter of my size
And with his away message
I realize once again
That I am only a fat girl
In University Park
I realize now more than ever
That society in general
Sees me like a beached whale
Not only do they say it
In not so many words
But they know as much as I do
That like the beached whale
I do not belong here
In this world of appearances
So as people laugh
On the sidewalk outside
My schoolwork becomes
My made-up alibi
They know it's not it
That I'm not doing work
They know I was not
On the guest list tonight
Or any guest list, ever
I guess I don't deserve
To have fun at this school
Because I'm a fat girl
In University Park.....
[[I threw this together quickly in a moment of utter hurt and frustration after someone invited my friends to a frat party and said I wasn't allowed.....let me know what you think]]
