I am posting the following song on behalf of my 15 year old
daughter, comments are welcome:

(Sort of thought you people might want to comment on this,
 if you want to flame anyone, do me in, not my daughter...)

--------------------------- SECRETS ----------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------

VERSE 1
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU TELL YOUR SO CALLED FRIEND A SECRET,
WHO TELLS IT TO HER BEST FRIEND, WHO TELLS THE NEXT IN LINE.
AND AROUND AND AROUND A CIRCLE GOES YOUR LITTLE SECRET,
THE ONE THAT I SHARED WITH YOU, THE SECRET THAT WAS MINE.

YOU TOLD THEM YOUR LITTLE SECRET BECAUSE YOU TRUSTED THEM,
SO THEY TOLD THEIR BEST FRIEND WHO THEY ALSO TRUSTED TOO.
BUT NOW THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS YOUR TINY LITTLE SECRET,
SO EVERYBODY'S TEASING YOU AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO.

CHORUS
TWO PEOPLE HAVE A SECRET, TO SHARE AMONG THEMSELVES.
ONE PERSON PUTS THEIR TRUST, INTO THEIR CLOSEST FRIEND,
AND THEY HOPE THEY UNDERSTAND, THAT THIS IS VERY SPECIAL,
BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE KNOWS THE MESSAGE THAT THEY SEND.

VERSE 2
YOU SEARCH AROUND HELPLESSLY FOR SOMEONE YOU CAN TALK TO 
BUT THEY WON'T TALK TO YOU, TO THEM IT'S JUST A MIME.
IT DIDN'T OCCUR TO YOU THAT THEY WERE NOT YOUR FRIENDS  
THE ONES YOU THOUGHT YOU COULD TRUST UNTIL THE END OF TIME.

BUT NOW YOU KNOW IT'S OVER, WHAT A SILLY MISTAKE TO MAKE,
IT'S ALL YOUR OWN FAULT, YOU SHOULD THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK,
HANG ON FOR JUST A MINUTE, HOW WERE YOU SUPPOSED TO KNOW, 
IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT, THEY'RE THE ONES WHO ACTED REALLY SLEEK.

CHORUS

VERSE 3
HOW COULD YOU NOT TRUST THEM, THEY TRICKED YOU DIDN'T THEY,
I DON'T THINK ANYONE KNOWS THAT THEY'RE A BUNCH OF FAKES.
YOU WALKED WITH THEM AND TALKED, AND FELL INTO THEIR TRAP
NOW TELL EVERYONE ABOUT THEM FOR YOUR BODY'S FULL OF ACHES.

THEY'RE THE ONES WHO HURT YOU SO WHY DON'T YOU GET THEM BACK,
I'LL TELL YOU WHY YOU DON'T, YOU DON'T ACT THE WAY THEY DO,
YOU ARE AN HONEST PERSON, WITH A REPUTATION TO MAINTAIN,
MOVE AWAY FROM THERE, BECAUSE WHAT THEY DID HAS HURT YOU.

CHORUS 

VERSE 4
JUST LIVE A NORMAL LIFE AND TRY TO FORGET WHAT THEY DID,
I KNOW IT'S HARD TO, BUT JUST TRY AND DO YOUR BEST.
DON'T JUST TRY AND FORGET THE THINGS THAT THEY HAVE DONE.
TRY TO FORGET ABOUT THEM AND ALSO ALL THE REST.

BECAUSE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT IS GOING TO MAKE THEM REGRET
EVERYTHING THEY DID TO MAKE YOU LOOSE YOUR FRIENDS,
THEIR GOING TO LOOSE MORE THAN YOU EVER LOST,
AND TO THEM THE LOOSING NEVER ENDS.
