POETRY BODY SHOPPING
Imagine if you could choose your own body Just think of how wonderful it would be You could select from all shape and sizes From the myriad of nature's
Oh imagine if you could choose your own body You could become your own favourite celebrity Stepping through those curtains, and into the spotlight Saying, "And tonight Mathew I'm going to be!"
OK, you may need restrictions or quotas A limited addition Brad Pitt But B.O.G.O.F.F could be an incentive For every Marilyn Monroe, you can have a free Eartha Kitt
The Body Shop, would really be a body shop With torsos hanging on racks Either off the peg, or if required made to measure And each comes with a guaranteed, sixteen day money back
Of course there would be a downside Cosmetic Surgery will become obsolete Doctors would hang up their scalpels And chiropodists would have to admit defeat
But just think of all the poor trans-sexuals And how much easier their sex- changes would be No longer the need for painful, extensive, reconstructive surgery It would be a quick in and out, and home in time for Richard and Judy
But some say it's not our place to interfere That nature should be left well alone How beauty is only skin deep Though sadly ugliness goes right to the bone! |
