Joe Jackson Pretty Boys Lyrics

Pretty boys - on my TV screen
Teeth so white and hair so clean
Pretty boys - sing and play guitars
Pretty boys get to be big stars.

How do you rate my s__ appeal from one to ten?
Is my image just a bit confusing?
Maybe I should get a facelift, start again
Maybe I should trade my pointed shoes in
'Cause talent don't count

For Pretty boys - on my TV screen
Teeth so white and hair so clean
Pretty boys - sing and play guitars
Pretty boys get to be big stars.

Those promo people got a lot to answer for
You can take your face and see just where it fits
Be a pretty p___ in someone else's war
Your baby blue eyes - somebody else's wits
Equals success

For Pretty Boys - on my TV screen
Teeth so white and hair so clean
Pretty boys - sing and play guitars
Pretty boys get to be big stars.

I wanna see a human being on my TV set
Want some action for the fat and thin man
They're getting closer but they ain't got robots yet
Just a hero with a smile like a tin man
No brains and no heart

Just Pretty Boys on my TV screen
Teeth so white and hair so clean
Pretty boys - sing and play guitars
Pretty boys get to be big stars.
