The Busy Girl Buys Beauty  - Billy Bragg


    The busy girl buys beauty
    The pretty girl buys style
    And the simple girl buys
    What she's told to buy
    And sees her world
    Through the brightly lit eyes
    Of the glossy romance of fashion
    Where she can learn...
    Top tips for the gas cook
    Successful secrets of a sexual kind
    The daily drill for beautiful hair
    And the truth about pain

    What was Anna Ford wearing?
    What did Angela Rippon say?
    What will you do
    When you wake up one morning
    To find that God's made you plain
    In a beautiful person's world?
    And all those quick recipes
    Have let you down
    And you're 20&1/2 and not yet engaged
    Will you go look for the boy who says
    I love you let's get married and have kids

    The busy girl buys beauty
    The pretty girl buys style
    And the simple girl buys
    What she's told to buy
    And sees her world
    Through the brightly lit eyes
    Of the glossy romance of fashion
    Where she can learn
    Top tips for the gas cook
    Successful secrets of a sexual kind
    The daily drill for beautiful hair
    In a mail order paradise...
