Born in the middle of a second big baby boom

Those noisy boys just might have spoken up too soon

Now I`m looking for a little girl, I wonder where she`s gone

Big money for families having more than one



Opportunity, opportunity

This is your big opportunity

They shop around

Follow you without a sound

Whatever you do now

Don`t turn around



Whatever happened to the pride of the nation?

They say, "just wait until you break formation"

She was sitting pretty on a velvet cushion

But her bedroom eyes were like a button she was pushing

She said, "When they get to Dover they`ll be be taking over"

I said I`d come to her defense and then she pulled me over



[Chorus:]

I`m in the foxhole, I`m down in the trench

I`d be a hero but I can`t stand the stench

The Fitness Institute was full of General Motormen

And the "Hello House of Beauty" wouldn't stand a chance with them

The chairman of this boredom is a company collector

I`d like to be his funeral director



[Chorus]



Please don`t turn around
