I Found That Essence Rare |
Aim for the body rare, you’ll see it on TV |
The worst thing in 1954 was the bikini |
See the girl on the TV dressed in the bikini |
She doesn’t think so but she’s dressed for the H-bomb |
And I found that essence rare, it’s what I looked for |
I knew I’d get what I asked for |
Aim for the country fair you read it in the papers |
The worst happens any week a scandal on the front page |
See the happy pair smiling close like they’re monkeys |
They wouldn’t think so but they’re holding themselves down |
And I found that essence rare, it’s what I looked for |
I knew I’d get what I asked for |
Aim for politicians fair who’ll treat your vote hope well |
The last thing they’ll ever do act in your interest |
Look at the world through your polarised glasses |
Things’ll look a whole lot better for the working classes |
