A Bone Through Her Nose


Oh the drones on the corner don't look her in the eye 
                                   
When she comes out to play
							           
And three times now at the Club Chi-Chi they've turned her away
                                                                 
Last week she was the belle of the ball but another week passes
                                                           
It's time to cast off crutches, scars and pebble glasses

Chorus:
						  
She's got everything a girl might need, she's a tribal animal, yes indeed
                                    
But she hasn't got a bone through her nose, through her nose

Hasn't got a bone through her nose
                                
She hasn't got a bone through her nose, through her nose
    
She hasn't got a bone through her nose
Hasn't got a bone through her nose, through her nose
She hasn't got a bone through her nose

Oh she gets her suits from a personal friend, Coco the clown
She got dustman's jacket, inside out, it's a party gown
If it's buffoons, she's got buffoons, if it's tat she got tat
She got hoochie coochie Gucci and a pom-pom hat

Chorus

Well, her ma writes cook books, she wrote one once, and it sold one or two
Her pa's in the city, he's so witty, he calls it the zoo
Her boyfriend plays in Scritti Politti, Aunt Sally's brown bread
In a few more years she can marry some fool and knock it on the head

Chorus
