Inspiring Parenting Moment FAIL

She's just a girl and she's on fire
Hotter than a fantasy, lonely like a highway
She's living in a world and it's on fire
Filled with catastrophe, but she knows she can fly away

Hmmm... I kind of like this song...

Ohhhh oh oh oh oh
She got both feet on the ground
And she's burning it down
Ohhhh oh oh oh oh
She got her head in the clouds
And she's not backing down

Nice lyrics about a girl who grounded yet hopeful... I'm liking it even more...

This girl is on fire...
This girl is on fire...
She's walking on fire...
This girl is on fire...

Yeah she is! You go girl! OK... OK... I shouldn't try to pull of the "you go girl" thing.

Looks like a girl, but she's a flame
So bright, she can burn your eyes
Better look the other way
You can try but you'll never forget her name
She's on top of the world
Hottest of the hottest girls say

She's awesome! Look how strong she is! Girls, are you listening?

Ohhhh oh oh oh
We got our feet on the ground
And we're burning it down
Ohhhh oh oh oh oh
Got our head in the clouds
And we're not coming down

Listen closely girls... This song is for you!

This girl is on fire...
This girl is on fire...
She's walking on fire...
This girl is on fire...

Yep, that's you! You're on fire!

Everybody stares, as she goes by
'Cause they can see the flame that's in her eyes
Watch her when she's lighting up the night
Nobody knows that she's a lonely girl
And it's a lonely world
But she gon' let it burn, baby, burn, baby

Be strong, my daughters, be strong! Let them all wish they were you!

This girl is on fire...
This girl is on fire...
She's walking on fire...
This girl is on fire...

Oh, oh, oh, oh ohhhhh oh oh oh ohhh oh oh oh ohhhh... [4x]

She's just a girl and she's on fire!

No doubt this is a great song for little girls to listen to and know that they can grow up to be awesome. Right? Who's with me on this?? Can I hear a "Hell yeah!" Right???

ADDIE: It's sad that they put the girl on fire, right Ellie? That's not very nice!
ELLIE: Yeah. I hope that someone is able to help her out soon. I wonder what she did to make them so mad at her.
