Miss Belgium Should've Taken It

from There Ain't No 'H' In Ripcordz, Dork​-​Face by Ripcordz

/

lyrics

Hairspray flies, video lies
Keeps them turning round and round
High-heeled shoes and bathing suits
Never a blemish to be found
All enthralled by this cattle call
We worship at the screen, but what does it mean?

CHORUS
No justice in this world, no justice for that girl
In the swine of the universe, she was the pearl
No way she could be faking it
Miss Belgium should've taken it
Been Queen of the World

The rest were bland, dismiss them out of hand
With mama backstage to make it all alright
Plastic boobs, hair cut in '52
Smiling so wide, they gave me a fright

And what's the stuff with all those questions
They ain't got no suggestions on how to save the world
If you're embarrassed by the process
Don't be shy, just ban the contest
From the whole damn world

But all's not lost, our paths might cross
When she stars in Def Leppard's next video
Or becomes the Queen of the TV screen
Raking in the dough on a tacky game show
