1. This girl is made of lipstick
   G
   Powder and paint
   C                    Ami
   Sees the pictures of herself
   F                 G
   Every magazine on every shelf
   
2. This girl is maid of Bond Street
   Hailing cabs, 
   lunches with executives
   Gleaming teeth sip aperitifs

   E              D
R: This girl is a lonely girl
   E                               D
   Takes the train from Paddington to Oxford Circus
   E
   Buys the Daily News
   D              C                   Ami    F              G
   But passengers don't smile at her, oh no, don't smile at her

3. This girl is made of loneliness
   A broken heart
   For the boy that she once knew
   Doesn't want to know her any more

R: And this girl is a lonely girl
   Every thing she wants is hers
   But she can't make it with the boy she really wants to be with
   All the time, to love, all the time

4. This boy is made of envy
   Jealousy
   He doesn't have a limousine
   Really wants to be a star himself

   E          G            A       D               G
R: This girl, her world is made of flashlights and films
   G             A             D            G
   Her cares are scraps on the cutting room floor
   
   G            C           F              G
*: And maids of Bond Street drive round in chauffered cars
   G             C      F                G
   Maids of Bond Street picture clothes, eyes of stars
   G             C      F              G
   Maids of Bond Street shouldn't have worldly cares
   (G             C)    F              G
   Maids of Bond Street shouldn't have love affairs
