Twiddle Dee Twiddle Dumb
Twiddle dee twiddle dumb
The art of aging has made me numb
Lift this tuck that
True beauty look beyond the fat
Twiddle dee twiddle dumb
Wrinkles and dimples should be gone
Sucking in and pulling out
Remove or re-shape that little snout
Twiddle dee twiddle dumb
Cellulite and bulges pilling on
Stretch and run till you scream
Media feeding us this nightmare’s dream
Twiddle dee twiddle dumb
Life is a race that we all run
Whether your first or you come in last
True beauty is in the smiles and laughter you cast
