Shine Baby Shine Lyrics

The perfect body

The perfect skin

Her mom moved out here when she was ten

They took auditions

They made the rounds

In for a penny, in for a pound

A bright smile opened a lot of doors

Her olive skin

Sure was a hit back then

All of the agents

All of the middlemen

They all agreed she was next to win

The lights are ready, the camera's primed

Come on, baby, it's time to shine

The lights are ready

Let's give 'em hell

The broken song of a southern belle

Out on the sidewalk

The stars are bright

Ain't nothing worse than an ugly life

She's got genetics

She's got emetics

For all that's left she's got the knife

A bright smile opened a lot of doors

Her olive skin

Sure was a hit back then

All of the agents

All of the middlemen

They all agreed she was next to win

The lights are ready, the camera's primed

Come on, baby, it's time to shine

The lights are ready

Let's give 'em hell

The broken song of a southern belle

It's not quite what you hoped for

But who knows, this could be the door

Another flirt, another smile,

You'll never know unless you try

It's not quite what you hoped for

But who knows, this could be the door

Another flirt, another smile

You'll never know unless you try

The lights are ready, the camera's primed

Come on, baby, it's time to shine

The lights are ready

Let's give 'em hell

The broken song of a southern belle

I see the future

You draw the line

The public's waiting for you to shine

I see the future

Let's give 'em hell

The broken song of a southern belle
