Get a load of him what a Nature Boy!

Too bad.
Who's that girl? She's a living Barbie doll!
In her plastic world, "Barbie" takes control.
Facelift, electrolysis
No hair out of place
Brain twist barbiturates,
She's got an evil beauty case.
Too bad, so sad.

Well, ain't you the glamourpuss!
Look so good it's dangerous.
Ain't you the glamourpuss,

You're less than amorous to me.

D
So long, glamourpuss, we might meet again
But if I was you, I wouldn't hold my breath 'til then
(Though I wish you would 'til the year, say 2010!}
Beefcake, cheesecake
Make me lick my lips.
Junkfood pulchritude
Goes straight to my hips.
Skin deep thrill seek
Amounts to less than zip.
I'm glad.
