5-0-1 Beauty Queen
She’s got nice lips, a seductive smile
She’s still as thin as a beanpole
With a little less class, but a little more style
And she spends all her time trying not to hear you
Well, she doesn’t want to know
Don’t wanna know
And there’s Kellogg’s in the cupboard
She takes a heart down from off the shelf
She passes by the mirror
She doesn’t like to look at herself
‘Cause she’d rather lose touch with reality
Than lose her fantasy, her fantasy
And...
Chorus:
Her smile is as faded as a used pair of jeans
And her heart is frayed around the edges
She’s comin’ undone at the seams
And it’s her last chance to make a statement
It’s her last note I’ve received
She’s a 5-0-1 beauty queen
And there’s flowers on the table
She’s lovely, she’s lovely not
But circles only make the hunger grow
So she goes out a lot
And she’s out there just a runnin’ around
Trying to make up some lost time, lost time
And she sits down for a social call
Like a princess she puffs on a cigarette
Her beauty is all threadbare now
But she’s never gonna let them forget
‘Cause my how she looked smashing in her gold lamet tank top
With the fancy beadwork on front, the beadwork’s on front
But...
(chorus)
And a voice chimes like a bell in the night
That just don’t know when to quit
She used to have more options
Now she wishes that she’d already picked
Wishes she couldn’t remember
All the things she’ll never forget, never forget
And the lines they all go deeper
Than the days of her youth
She flirts and lies and always denies
What to her is on longer of any use
But it’s not because she hates what she doesn’t understand
She just don’t understand
And her fire is as faded as a used pair of jeans
Her heart is frayed around the edges
She’s comin’ undone at the seams
And it’s her last chance to make a statement
It’s here last go on the scene
She’s a 5-0-1 beauty queen
