Lip Gloss Song
Mac (mac) L'Oreal, yep cause +I'm worth it+
Love the way, I puts it on so perfect
Wipe, the corners of my mouth so I work it
when I walk down the hallway they cain't say nothin
Oh!, Oh! Oh! My lips so luscious
The way I spice it up with the Mac-Mac brushes
L'Oreal got them wat-ballermelon crushes
That's probably the reason all these boys got crussssshESS... (By Lil' Mama)
I think we need to start a list of music that mentions makeup and beauty products.
Here are my entries:
A little Mascara by The Replacements
Lip Gloss by Pulp
Candy Perfume Girl by Madonna
I hate Your Perfume by Guided by Voices
Magic's in the Makeup by Gwen Stefani
Perfume by Jesus and Mary Chain (there is no mention of fragrance in the lyrics)
Crush with Eyeliner by R.E.M
Do you know any that I have missed?
Let me know in the comments.

Without the lipstick
Without the L’Oreal
You remain the same angel that I fell for
For real, for real
This is one of the best songs on her Dutchess album.
One of my faves (in German) is called "Beautycase" by the French-German group Stereo Total.

ReplyDelete"touch up" - mother mother
ReplyDelete"Unpretty" (the one that mentions that "you can buy all the makeup that MAC can make" and still feel ugly) is actually by TLC.
ReplyDeleteThe lyrics to Elvis Costello's "Girls Talk" start off with this: "There are some things you can't cover up with lipstick and powder..."
ReplyDeleteElvis Costello's "So Like Candy":
ReplyDeleteHere lie the powder and perfume
Her pretty clothes are scattered 'round the room...
Then there's the classic "These Foolish Things":
A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces...
in Tori Amos' "ieee", she says, "need a lip gloss boost in your America". i can relate to that.
ReplyDeletehaha....
