Georgian Make-up Songtext
A gorgeous Georgian lady
Is quite a sight to see
For some splendid beauty tips
Pay attention, listen to me

White is beautiful dear ladies
Smear your face with paint of lead
Never mind the lead has made
The men who mixed it ill or dead...
Take some silk of red or black
Cut a circle or a crescent
Stick it on your face to cover
Smallpox scars- it's much more pleasant

Shave your eyebrows clean away
Take a trap and catch some mice
Make flash eyebrows with the mouse skin
Stick them on, you'll look so nice...!

Next you need a monster wig
If you want to look real smashing
Once your wig has reached the roof
Then you'll be the height of fashion!

Decorate your lovely hairpiece
Use the feathers of a parrot
Add some ribbon, fruit and flowers
And from your ear then hang a carrot!
Make your face look soft and chubby
Pack your mouth with balls of cork
Hang your flash teeth in the middle
Hope you don't choke when you talk...

Now you followed my advice
Last of all you need a fan
Flutter it oh so demurely
Then you're sure to bag your man...
