Now for Something Completely Different

O' mirror on the wall
do tell
define my beauty
extol my charm

I drape myself
with this dress so gracefully
folding myself on this chair
pushing out allure
oh!

o so difficult this desire
to show perceived beauty
pouting lips
in Jagger's horror

a comedy of desire
longing, envy and needs
to shine once more
flawless without the sags

pause
consider the flaws
age and gravity
painted well over glows
of smooth skin

wrinkled and worn
grey and mottled
bunions and warts
sagged butts and frequent farts

O it wasn't me
was it..?
