Lyrics The Tiger Lillies

The Tiger Lillies

High-heel shoes

You sell your fat for money

and work the freakshow booths

in high-heel shoes

You dance the ballerina

they laugh at every move

in high-heel shoes

You sell yourself for money

while they laugh and take the piss

You hate them when they laugh at you,

then blow them a kiss

You’re eating twenty chickens,

you eat them every day

You eat them as they watch

and as they look away

So now you’re getting fatter

the fat on you does grow

You’re getting bigger every year

until your heart does go

You dance the ballerina

the fat on you will swell

So you just keep on eating

the freakshow’s biggest girl

Now you’re bending over

and shaking what you’ve got

And as you shake it baby

they all shout fucking slut

You sell your fat for money,

you sell your fat for money…

… In high-heel shoes
