What's the difference ?
You'll never belong to anything anyway.
Don't hesitate now, dear.
Stick to your promise.
A matter of principle.
Go on. Get it over with.
The Girl With The Prefabricated Heart
Oh, Venus was born out of sea foam
Oh, Venus was born out of brine
But a goddess today, if she is grade A
Is assembled upon the assembly line
How divine. Rise and shine
Upon the assembly line
Now, Julie was born as is proper
Her every proportion was planned
She was poured from a mould,
exquisite and cold
And she grew up untouched by human hand
Oh, how grand ! See her stand
Untouched by human hand
Her chromium nerves and her platinum
brain were chastely encased in Cellophane
And to top off this daughter of science and art
She was equipped with a prefabricated heart
She prepares for life.
Shall I be auburn or dark or fair ?
Shall I unbind my nylon hair ?
Would love make skies look clearer ?
Or should I serenade my mirror ?
He'd pamper and pet and inspire me
Why else were my charms made so drastic ?
Why else were my arms made so plastic ?
What else was my heart electroplated for ?
Oh, send me the mate it was prefabricated for
Then just like the movies, a mail-order male
Was sent by the gods direct from Yale
He was handsome
with biceps of stainless steel
Plus which he was rich,
and his love for her was real
By fate he was guided to knock at her door
'Twas love at first sight for evermore
They were made for each other,
exclusively planned
So he bent his knee
and he asked her for her hand
Her bridal gown was a synthetic
weave of coal tar, milk, and wood,
in a four-billion-dollar machine.
I'll offer you sterilised flowers
Expensive and scentless and rare
There'll be pedigree birds
As they fly through the air-conditioned air
Your fanciful dreams I'll interpret for you
Your hidden desires I will bring into view
All the wheels in your brain
I will polish and shine
To prove they can move in harmony with mine
Oh, nature and art will not win her
So ply her with diamonds and pearls
For bracelets and rings are practical things
That appeal to the mind of a healthy girl
Nature and art will not win her
I'll ply her with diamonds and pearls
For bracelets and rings are practical things
That appeal to the mind of a healthy girl
- Julie, at last you're mine.
- I guess.
- I've always dreamed of this moment divine.
- It will be nice, unless...
Oh, darling, let us seal our marital bliss
with a glorious technicolour kiss.
I suppose so.
You express every ideal I've ever had.
You're as evocative as a full-page ad.
Tell me that you care.
