Armani washing up gloves, dishcloth's by Prada
She’s a fashion victim, although it’s getting harder
Time takes it’s time to chip, chip away
But it does and it won't go away
Hair’s extended,teeth are capped
Look too long and knuckles are rapped
Silicon bits fill her blouse
They always stick out
And still arouse
Living the dream
Seize the day
Costs too much
Can't afford to pay
Used to party all night
All weekend
Now the flashing lights
Send her round the bend
She’s walking the streets
The seedy part of town
Charlie money, for a run around
Breakfast at Tiffany’s not today
Spike in the arm, it all goes away
Victim of a fashion, but no bright lights
Stairway to heaven
Take in the sights
Life took her life away
Was promising when it started
Another victim,the end of the day
What becomes of the broken hearted?
