‘Sex sells’- They sell it!

You can find two types of people on red lights

First begs and the second kind is me!

Against money, I provide my service.

Where else the first kind gets it for free!

Still my work is considered lower than that of the other kind

I work and earn my living, don’t fake to be lame or blind.

I am simply a business woman, I sell my commodity

Just a mere difference-that my product is my body.

This trade involves two parties-What is demanded is what I supply!

Still I am held guilty, no one questions him. Why?

I am deprived of my identity the government gives me no right!

Just because my product is different and my work station is red light.

My professional name is an abuse, I mean it for true!

But I am not a slut or a prostitute, I am an entrepreneur just like you!

You can find two types of people on red lights

First begs and the second kind is me!

Against money, I provide my service.

Where else the first kind gets it for free!
