No one knows what she really looks like Without all her makeup on Once she applied the first coat of beautify She never once thought of taking it off She just continually adds to the layers Off the color wheel from which she gleens Comes in an array of colors From the 70's through the new millennium Even her own mother would not recognize her If she ever decided to come clean A la natural in spite of it all This Maybelline beauty queen She never fell into a little dab will do ya But far less than any glob fest She lets her fingers do the walking as her makeup does the talking Never once giving her face a rest Never could guess how old she is As she expertly fills in the lines Every crevis and crack from forehead to neck A little heavy-handed at times Till even she doesn't know what she looks like

Maybelline Beauty Queen
No one knows what she really looks like Without all her makeup on Once she applied the first coat of beautify She never once thought of taking it off She just continually adds to the layers Off the color wheel from which she gleens Comes in an array of colors From the 70's through the new millennium Even her own mother would not recognize her If she ever decided to come clean A la natural in spite of it all This Maybelline beauty queen She never fell into a little dab will do ya But far less than any glob fest She lets her fingers do the walking as her makeup does the talking Never once giving her face a rest Never could guess how old she is As she expertly fills in the lines Every crevis and crack from forehead to neck A little heavy-handed at times Till even she doesn't know what she looks like
