"She left her school for the factory,
From pocket money to a salary,
From a pac-a-mac to her compact case,
And every morning she inspects her face.
She discovers pulling pints in pubs,
But her good looks will never cover up for her dumbness in taking
the stock, Sees her reflection in a butcher's shop.
She finds it all quite rare, that her meats all vanity fair.
She finds it all quite rare, that her meats all vanity fair.
She has her eyes on medallion men that get her home on the dot
at ten.
She combs her hair when she gets excused,
The deal she wants always ends up screwed.
Paints her nails on the bathroom scales,
Gargles her breath like a landed whale,
Her beauty is as deep as her skin,
Keeps her eyebrows in a tobacco tin,
She poses foot on a chair, coconut shy but vanity fair,
She poses foot on a chair, coconut shy but vanity fair.
In her vanity case, her compact case,
In her compact case, her eyes.
Not bad for a sister, but her vanity's fair and her sense of humour's
dry.
She comes home late with another screw loose,
She swears to have had just a pineapple juice.
Falls asleep fully clothed in her bed,
With her makeup remover by her head.
And she might not be all there, but her dreams all vanity fair,
She might not be all there, but her dreams all vanity fair."
Lyrics by Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook.

Walking strolling down
Down the gallery of memory
Pictures painted there
And it hangs on the wall
Calling out to me
Down the corridor to the left
Pilgrim walk away
Just walk away
Pilgrim beware of Vanity Fair
Pilgrim beware
Window shopping now
Window shopping down at Vanity Fair
Shall we go inside
Go inside and look around
Would you like to buy
The Red Man kindly asks me
Pilgrim walk away
Just walk away
Pilgrim beware of Vanity Fair
Pilgrim beware
Singing, calling out
Echoes of the truth somewhere
A sea of sinking souls
They can't really understand
Vain, it's calling vain
Watch them take another drink again
Pilgrim walk away
Just walk away
Pilgrim beware of Vanity Fair

You're not human
You're a miracle
A preacher with an animal's face
In your sexy
Neon smokescreen
Lie the supersalesmen of vanity
Even your shadow worships you
In your jungle solitude
With the orgies of the sacrament
And the seal of flagellants
God saves those who save their skin
From the bondage that we're in
I'm elated
I could cut you
And remove the sheath of your ignorance
Bless the eunuch
And the Skoptsi
Will you hurt me now and make a million?
Say cheese, baby
We all love you
But it's a cheap world and you don't exist...
Slit the fabric of the right now
Spread your legs and wear the crown
Tell me how long, lord, how long?
Till I get my beauty sleep?
Now the hourglass is empty
The moment of my de-sexing
Cut it
Cut it
Cut this cancer from my soul
Now that I've made it...
I'm finally naked...

My, oh my, little girl, you should give just what you can
To the world, to your sisters, to those arms of a loving man
To your bliss, to your future, to your memories and prayers
'Cos it's cold and it's changing, yeah, this place called Vanity Fair
My, oh my, little brother, can I look you in the eye?
Do you know what you're saying is it half remembered lies?
Handed down, half forgotten, re-believed and upside down
Are you sure that you get it now you live in Vanity Town?
Vanity Fair, where all you gotta do is stare
Plus you got to play unfair
So baby, lighten up your hair
Come to Vanity Town
Oh father, oh father, you said nothing of this fate
Now you smile as you sit there and pretend it's not too late
I said, ?Why could you not tell me what it was that I would find?
But it's alright, I forgive you 'cos I know how you lost your mind
Vanity Fair; where all you gotta do is stare
Plus you got to play unfair
So baby, lighten up your hair
Come to Vanity Town
Come to Vanity Town
Oh now what will we suffer? To what fate will we be forced?
On this path was there no other way we could have got it worse?
Yes I see it now a pageantry that comes to Vanity fair
But I'm sad to say it came too late and now I just don't care
About Vanity Fair; where all you gotta do is stare
Plus you got to play unfair
So baby, lighten up your hair
Come to Vanity Town
Vanity Town, Vanity Town

Money money
Welcome to my new and improved life
On the darkside
Climbing in the neverending stairs of gold
Just trying to grab and hold
It's all good
My face on the magazine
Limelights
And everybody's loving me
I made a deal with these so called friends of mine
And now I burn art
Like I'll burn all the bridges behind
All bridges behind... (3x)
kertosäe:
I'm all over and I've got it going
I will turn my soul into profit
I'm all over and I've got it going
I'll make it happen
just the way you want it, yeah!
All over not gotta going, gotta going, gotta going...
Money, girls, cars
Is what they promised me
Got none of them
Just this new type of captivity
I went through the wheels of machinery
And now I'm half the man I used to be
That I used to be... (3x)
Yeah!
