Lyrics

Magazine Girl

Verse 1
I saw you in the town that day
A gorgeous rose, a golden ray
The locals they all fell in love
A summer breeze, a gentle dove
But in your eyes you seemed so strange
Your hips too large, in need of change

Verse 2
The girls admired, the men they swooned
Saw you in Vogue, the evening news
Your flashing smile, you had it made
We never saw the price you paid
The surgeon's knife, the splintered bone
Your jawline changed, your nose was honed

Chorus
Magazine girl ohh, lived your life in the lens
You had the wealth, the style, the fame
And all the right friends
So why was life hollow, to be doped out of view?
You lived for the pressmen, but never for you

Verse 3
The racing days, the opening nights
The adoration, camera lights
The flashy men with dazzling smiles
They rode you round you went for miles
You took the pills, you did the line
You're cracking up, pretend you're fine
to Chorus
