People tell me i'm a Shirley Temple look-alike
With my dark ringlet curls
And my little spotty dress
I just twirl and twirl and twirl
As if i'm on my way
Around the bloody world
I hope the boys dont catch
A glimpse of me Bombay pants
When i'm dancing in just my pants
When i twirl and dance and prance
In my cotten smelly pants
I'm a Shirly Temple look-alike
People cry out, oh there goes that guy
Who thinks he's a girl
Just because he twirl and twirl
In front of all the other girls
But all said and done
I'm just a little guy
Who is really quite shy
Who is just a little peeping Tom
