Pretty boy made up, all part of the sham,
Overpriced piece of meat, a can of Spam.
Don't got much to say but boy he sure looks good.
Market research ringing in, says the kid's a winner.
And he'll be the biggest thing since TV dinners.
Just don't let him sweat cause the make-up runs.

Well, I'll stay down here, I could do worse
Than a grave of my own making.
'Cause things are always looking up
With a view from the underground.

Teen scream magazine says he likes to party,
And midnight rides in the pool on his Harley.
Says his name"s been changed to protect the innocent.
Making video, yeah, zoom in on his penis.
But something that small should never come between us.
Hey, no problem, where's that goddamn cucumber?

Well, I'll stay down here, I could do worse
Than a grave of my own making.
'Cause things are always looking up
With a view from the underground.

I'll stay down here, I could do worse
Than a grave of my own making.
'Cause things are always looking up
With a view from the underground.

Cartoon, lunchbox, time to make the movie.
He's a household world and everything is groovy.
And the new trend doesn't start for another week.
Money's to be made, yeah, the sky's the limit.
We can sell them anything if he is in it.
Just don't let him sweat 'cause the make-up runs.

Well, I'll stay down here, I could do worse
Than a grave of my own making.
'Cause things are always looking up
With a view from the underground.
