Simon Curtis - Put Your Makeup On

Little baby grew up fast
Living loving being last
Always with a man and thinking "where could this go?"
But now she's running low on cash
All the girls are talking trash
Because she's gorgeous and she can't afford the disco
So she gets on the only way she knows how
It takes a stiff upper lip to forge a new direction
She's making money and she's happier now
Playing around with the boys 'till they're sporting an erection


You think you know her and that you're better off
But we are just like her, only in disguise
Guilty pleasures shouldn't feel guilt at all
Because they're one and the same in my eye

If you wanna go and dance (put your makeup on it)
Stop waiting for another chance (you gotta jump up on it)
No money if the song won't last (better work up on it)
Cause pretty soon it's gonna pass (put your makeup on it)
And if you need a harder proof (put your makeup on it)
You've really got nothing to choose (find your bliss and flaunt it)
Blind them with another ruse (girls will talk about it)
You really got nothing to lose, put your makeup on


Little girls know what to do
By the time that they are two
Playing dress-up in the makeup of their mother
What's a mother s'posed to do
When she walks into the room
Finds her baby, not her daughter, but her brother
Now surely from there you can sort out the rest
Cause it's a little taboo, and you don't want me to go there
Just know that somewhere there's a little red dress
And the babe will seduce, but she'll find no sugar anywhere


You think you know her and that you're better off
But we are just like her, only in disguise
Guilty pleasures shouldn't feel guilt at all
Because they're one and the same in my eye

If you wanna go and dance (put your makeup on it)
Stop waiting for another chance (you gotta jump up on it)
No money if the song won't last (better work up on it)
Cause pretty soon it's gonna pass (put your makeup on it)
And if you need a harder proof (put your makeup on it)
You've really got nothing to choose (find your bliss and flaunt it)
Blind them with another ruse (girls will talk about it)
You really got nothing to lose, put your makeup on


As a kid, I got a lotta shit for
Liking my music, but what is it for?
Guess you'll listen and dance, because it gives more
Yeah, but it sounds lovely on the dance floor
