BOW TIE

Verse

You can say with all certainty that clothes make the mannequin

But clothes can’t make the man.

You take somebody like a Jeffrey Dahmer, comb his hair

Sprink on talc. Doll him up and slap a bow tie on him

But doing all that won’t really change a thing.

In the end, you'll NOT want him near your daughter

There are some better off hogtied than bow tied.

Chorus

If you lie down with dogs you may well

Rise up with fleas or worse some disease.

Whereas beauty is skin deep, ugly seeps clear through to the bone.

There’s a sort of nasty that can't be vacuumed up or

Perfumed out of the human fabric.

You can’t get ahead of backwards thinking

Nor bow tie the wrong-headed.
