Lyrics

[Intro]
Ladies, don't you long for love?
Be irresistible!
With the brighter, attractive beauty
Everybody admires
[Intro]
Soft hair that invites his caress
Attract! Arouse! Tantalise!
And draw from him a "Hello, Beautiful!"
[Verse 1]
He will follow you with his eyes
That's the promise of the potion that I buy
I've been spending all my money to get mine
Who will follow me with his eyes
[Verse 2]
All those girls in magazines
They make it seem so simple
Make me believe it
Help yourself to love
And White Rose Cold Cream
Then he'll follow you with his eyes
[Verse 3]
Lighter and brighter
Longer and straighter it goes
(Follow me, boy, look me over)
Leaner and smoother, softer and softer
I begin to count the cost
To get this mystery and, oh
[Verse 4]
I don't want to leave myself behind
Vanishing into a girl that I don't recognize
If you want to run to Sweet Georgia Brown, do
[Verse 5]
I'll be smouldering in my plum red lipstick
My black hair kinking
My black skin gleaming
My plum red lipstick
My plum red lipstick
My black hair kinking
My black skin gleaming
My plum red lipstick
My plum red lipstick
My black hair kinking
My black skin gleaming
My plum red lipstick
My plum red lipstick
My black hair kinking
My black skin gleaming
My plum red lipstick
My plum red lipstick
My black hair kinking
My black skin gleaming
My plum red lipstick
