G           A
The cicatrix beneath
 C#m         E
Max Factor 101 or 9
G           A
I don't get my hopes up
C#m         E
On Pond's rosy pride
G           A
I don't get my teeth
C#m         E
Stuck midway too brave
A close-up smile

Chorus:
G           A
The arrow goes off
C#m         E
Oh it hits your behind
G           A
You fall blindly
C#m         E
You gotta pay the price
G           A
You gotta check some
C#m         E
Fine print they tell you,
G           A
You can't do without
C#m         E
Till the next product line come,
G           A
They'll have you in mind.

(Do cp: G-A and C#m-E )
When a funny line escape
From a callow pretense of an ad
An inflicted sense of the word
Kicks in.
"Oh so pretty,
not pimple-friendly"
Pass the word around...

(Do cp: G-A and C#m-E )
Then you're 70 not 17
It's your raisin face they mock
Rely on pension for a last
Lipo stunt
Get a face lift a lip contour
Techno takes a toll on you
Pass the word around
