Wonder Woman

What if Wonder Woman had a kid?
A single parent after fuckin' the Flash
Didn't try to make it work cuz she knew it wouldn't last
But still kept the baby despite giving up her free pass
At life
Plenty of things she wanted to do
Visit Krypton, learn that laser eye beam shit
But she can't do everything on her list
And Bat Girl can't babysit every chance she get
So she's stuck
Using her super strength to fight off runny noses
Using her lasso to keep a hyper kid close
And dressing down for PTA meetings
And she loved that gold bra
It made her feel like a superstar
It now hangs in the back of her closet
Her zest for life she already lost it
Secretly blaming the kid for the life she's been through
Now imagine that that child was you
And you don't have superpowers
Just a smart mouth, a pen and a lonely spirit
Because while mom is fighting crime from 9 to 5
And on the weekends still trying to grind
You gotta feed, teach and entertain yourself most of the time
And you feel bad cause Mom's happiness has disappeared
But fuck, you ain't ask to be here
All you want is love but you can't get that because
You gotta split time with Uncle Cyclops, Uncle Wolverine and Uncle Gambit
But please believe that bullshit, Wonder Woman ain't having it
Any kinda bullshit
Bad grades, lost keys, back talk, cut up in school
Don't try to hide that shit cause Wonder Woman ain't no fool
She'll use that lasso as a switch and get in your muthafuckin' shit
Whether you really do or really don't deserve that shit
But I digress its not as bad as it sounds
Plenty of food and Super Friends around
It's a wonder this woman survived like she did
But it ain't that bad being a superhero kid
