Lyrics
LILY LISCIOUS
Oh, my Lily Liscious, she's really quite delicious. Fullest hippest chicken on the farm.
Teaches poise and elocution in her private institution; school for self-assurance,
charm and self-reliance, how to strut and common kindness.
What a fascination, she's one of a kind.
Oh, what a beauty! She's a complex cutie, She's the one with beauty,
silky scarves and high-heeled booties
When she walks in the room there's a bump bitty bumpity boom.
She looks like a million, legs are worth a zillion. Oh, that Lily Licious, she's a devine.
She'll teach ya how to talk, then she'll teach ya how to walk. Teach ya how to behave.
She's got some manners, not ta mention certain standards.
If ya work with Lily Licious you'll conform to her ways. When she comes in to view.
Oh, what a beauty! She's a complex cutie, She's the one with beauty,
silky scarves and high-heeled booties
When she walks in the room there's a bump bitty bumpity boom.
She can walk a mile, in six inch heels with style, capture all the boys with just a wink and a smile. If you're really, really lucky, She'll teach ya her ways.
If ya dare disobey, she'll send ya on yer way.
She's a gal on a mission, ta position a girl awishin' a new way a livin'. Don't mis behave.
Lily Licious is a beauty. She's a complex cutie.
She's the one with beauty, leopard scarves and high heeled booties.
When she walks in the room there's a bump bitty bump bitty bumpity boom.
Toes and eyelashes, tresses and ponashes, haute couteur and skin correction,
awesome make-up lessons are some of the selections you'll be honored to know.
You'll be finer than the winner at the Five Star Cafe.
Turn ya in to perfection. Add to her collection along the way.
Tough as nails. Smooth as sails. Lily makes me swoon when she walks in that room
with her bump, bitty bump, bitty bump bitty bump, bitty bumpity boom.
