From the ice-age to the dole-age
there is but one concern
and I have just discovered:
some girls are bigger than others
some girls are bigger than others
some girls mothers are bigger than
other girls mothers
some girls are bigger than others
some girls are bigger than others
some girls mothers are bigger than
other girls mothers

As Anthony said to Cleopatra
as he opened a crate of ale:
Ooh I say...
some girls are bigger than others
some girls are bigger than others
some girls mothers are bigger than
other girls mothers.
some girls are bigger than others
some girls are bigger than others
some girls mothers are bigger than
other girls mothers

Send me your pillow
the one that you dream on
Send me your pillow
the one that you dream on
and I'll send you mine...

 

on the shop floor, there's a calendar
as obvious as snow
as if we didn't know
some girls are bigger than others
some girls are bigger than others
and some girls mothers are bigger than
other girls mothers
some girls are bigger than others
some girls are bigger than others
some girls mothers are bigger than
other girls mothers
