COSMETIC FIXATION
Words and Music by
Randy Stonehill

Cosmetic fixation, it's overtaking
the nation
Cosmetic fixation, it's such a sick
situation
Is here hair real blonde
Are her legs real long
Does she look real foxy on the
party lawn
You pretend your love is true
But she's just a symbol of success
to you

Cosmetic fixation, we pursue it
with dedication
Cosmetic fixation, you know we
use it like medication
You got the foreign car
With the phone and bar
And the license plate says who
you are
You pretend you're satisfied
Yes, but it's only there to stroke
your pride

We're so concerned about
keeping up appearances
And all the while we ravage our
humanity
We're so annoyed with the Truth's
interferences
And real values get sacrificed to
vanity

Cosmetic fixation, it's overtaking
the nation
Cosmetic fixation, you know we
treat it like the great vocation
You got the house on the hill
Your jacuzzi's filled
And the Dom Perignon is nicely
chilled
It's like all those magazines
But in the end it doesn't mean a
thing
