Oh Texas what a blessing you bring
On menstrual products, the sales tax you’ll no longer deplete
No more paying while you’re on your period; you can take a breath and breathe free
Baby items too, all the taxes gone, this should be a public decree
No need to feel embarrassed or ashamed whenever you need to buy a feminine hygiene product
The world shall know that Texans’ wallets are no longer at risk
