Seen at the hairdressers where I was waiting for a simple cut & blow dry.
I’m waiting at reception
Behind a lady who
Books manicures and facials
For every week or two.
Then there are her eyebrows
That the beautician plucks
She needs total beauty treatments
To keep up with her looks.
You’d think with all this treatment
That she’d be glamorous,
But this lady is short and fat
And her face is tedious.
All this makes me wonder
What she would be without
All her beauty treatments,
Would her husband throw her out?
Would she be so ugly
She couldn’t face the world
Without manicures and facials
And hair that’s bleached and curled?
Whatever floats your boat they say,
Whatever turns you on,
And with this short fat lady
It’s a beauty marathon!
