Oh the press is down

And the flesh is black and white

Eager workers turning the pages

Dirty fingers touch your life



All you pretty maids

With all your charms on view

Farm the wasteground in your head now

Your sisters can't get through



Oh hey, hey, Citizen Jane

What will your sisters say

Oh they'll say ain't it a shame

After comin' such a long, long way

Citizen Jane



Now they're trading skin

And the cause is pushed away

Greedy piggies live on Fleet Street

Dealing meat out every day



Oh hey, hey, Citizen Jane

What will your sisters say

Oh they'll say ain't it a shame

After comin' such a long, long way

Citizen Jane



What a picture, what a woman

What a curve on the great white way

A little touch up, a little airbrush

What will your sisters say
