Lyrics
Glamour Girl
(Intro...softly..out of tempo)
In every shot
I see my own face.
With handsome boys
In the wind I race.
On the beach
I set the pace.
I'm the sexiest
Most awesome female in space!
In do-wap fashion tempo starts:
(Male backround vocal, Bass)
-ba--boom ba-boom
Gotta tell you that it feels real good! #1
-ba-boom ba-boom
Stronger than a statue on a Chevy hood
-ba-boom ba-boomm
I learn to talk, to dress and to think
-ba-boom ba- boom
Thanks to a 'zine I saw at my shrink
(backrd. fem. voc:) oooooooooooo
Mike page 89: how to dress real fine. #2
All the different shades
All the lines
From "Sartre's" 'Flies'
To Poli-Sci
All the little secrets (backrd.fem.voc.:) ooooooooo.....
Pushing I.Q. real high! ooooooooo.....
-ba-boom-ba-boom
Every morning I eat the gossips,
-ba-bomm-ba-boom
I swallow it whole between two coffee sips.
-ba-boom-ba-boom
If I get blue I just turn a page or two
To the 8 by 10 shots of you know who...
How to land a millionaire (backrd.fem. voc.:) oooooo
I wrote the book oooooo
I Know alll the tunes oooooo
I Set all the hooks! wa-wa-wa-girl (in tempo)
