lyrics

How many chihauhaus did you lose little girl?
(little hieress in paris)
While your handlers scurried all around you?
How are things going in your rehab today?
(little rocker in Chelsea)
Did your lucky break not suit you enough?

How many times ligging it behind the wheel?
(little Hollywood star)
Did they like your pretty hair down in the cells?
Do you have to score on the street?
(little princess in Monaco)
Can you even walk to a steady beat?

CHORUS
Heavy hangs the head of the one who wore
The beautiful crown the night before
All dressed up and nowhere to go
Your cruel shoes girl, they suit you well
Beauty beauty look at you
I wish to god I had it too
I could rip you to shreds while doing my nails
Petty Pussy "it girl" of our times

Are the young boys still flocking to you?
(old queenie in London)
Are you growing old with the grace that we need?
(madonna madonna)
How many producers write your Number 1 songs?
(New York extravaganza)
How many years were you touring in a van?

Why do you let those men beat you down?
(little school girl)
Why are your daddy and the ex controlling you?
Does it hurt your eyes when the strobe lights flash?
(love the paparazzi)
Is it painful when they quote your words in the press?

Bridge

CHORUS
Heavy hangs the head of the one who wore
The beautiful crown the night before
All dressed up and nowhere to go
Your cruel shoes girl, they suit you well
Beauty beauty look at you
I wish to god I could buy it too
I could rip you to shreds while doing my nails
Petty Pussy "it girl" of our times
