Ugly Duckling - Daisy LYRICS

Daisy, oh you're so shapely

Open your eyes up, if you wise up you could be a lady

Yeah, yeah



[ VERSE 1 ]

Let's take this from the top

I wanna talk about a girl who's been around the block

She seems like a sweet chick, she's a beatnik

Or so I heard from other cats that she sleeps with

She'll hold a conversation light as a twig

With a song and dance about likin to live

And before you know it she slipped out of the party

To paint the town with another Goodtime Charlie

She likes diamonds and cashmere

But she'll settle for a dinner and cab fare

Back in school she was a bad Betty

Who had to go steady with Chad, Derrick and Eddy

Now she's graduated to a home-wrecker

Who never regrets, so save the lecture

You're stylish and cavalier

But sweetie, you need to take a look in the mirror



Daisy, oh you're so shapely

Open your eyes up, if you wise up you could be a lady

Yeah, yeah

She's danger and you can't save her

So call the reverend, why in heaven can't you be a lady?

Yeah yeah



Let's take this from the top

Let's take this from the top



[ VERSE 2 ]

She seems straight off a billboard

With the looks girls kill for

But she swings like Happy Gilmore

I know one cat claimin in love

While she runs around and drags his name in the mud

Impersonating the good girl like charades

Sold your soul, she's as cold as the Ice Capade

You'll be in a dump feelin stabbed in the back

While she's puffin on a cigarette havin a laugh

Buddy, you barked up the wrong tree

So sing a new song and keep it on key

And don't let the freak crawl back on your love seat

Say, "Don't touch me, please move your butt cheek"

She's a tramp, you can ask Ol' Blue Eyes

Or Prince, who said act your age not your shoe size

Girls, if you don't wanna be lonely

Well, show a little class quick fast, so you won't be



Daisy, oh you're so shapely

Open your eyes up, if you wise up you could be a lady

Yeah, yeah

She's danger and you can't save her

So call the reverend, why in heaven can't you be a lady?

Yeah yeah



Let's take this from the top

Let's take this from the top



Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen



That's right Daisy, you better do right
