"LIPSTICK ON A PIG" lyrics

"LIPSTICK ON A PIG"

Well it's all a competition
For the next rendition
Of a song that you already heard

For a 2 cent trophy
On a road to glory
You can take home a polished turd

So fake that smile
And read those lines
And watch as your money burns

Yeah, I kept a tight lip
Now I wanna sink the ship
So here's the hoping that it works

Yeah, they'll say that I've gone crazy
It's more likely
I've always been insane

So pucker them lips
For an ass to kiss
Hoping that the next one hits

It's a hard life looking
For the next big thing
Puttin' lipstick on a pig

Well there's a new generation
And it's sweeping the nation
But we've seen this before

With ever growing tension
And a smaller pension
You'll get your money's worth

And I don't give a damn
If you take a stand
Or wait till its your turn

But the fact of it is
Is its all gone to shit
And welcome to the new world

Yeah, they'll say that I've gone crazy
It's more likely
I've always been insane

So pucker them lips
For an ass to kiss
Hoping that the next one hits

It's a hard life looking
For the next big thing
Puttin' lipstick on a pig

Yeah, they'll say that I've gone crazy
It's more likely
I've always been insane

So pucker them lips
For an ass to kiss
Hoping that the next one hits

It's a hard life looking
For the next big thing
Puttin' lipstick on a pig

It's a hard life looking
For the next big thing
Puttin' lipstick on a pig
