Supermodel
Bran Van 3000

Ooh, look at all this company coming 'round tonight

Even Catherine O'Hara's come by to say hello

You really wanna know?

Well, I'll tell you, might have to pour myself

Another little moonshine, here we go


Was a sweet and frosty May

In the town of Thunder Bay

When Dale and Wendy Day

Went out to Sweet brush Lake


Found a weeping willow to sit down

And do the Thunder Bay a go-go

While the wind was real soft

Poor little Wendy just had to break


Later on that month, Dale went for Pepper lunch

At the 'We're All In This Together Diner'

Yeah, the pea soup was fine, the corn cob on time

Chili dog's even finer


The real reason was that Wendy was working counter

Two little kids just couldn't get enough of each other

Dale broke out like a man and said

Wendy, I think I want to take your hand

And make little children, live beyond the sand


In respect to the clouds

And the colony of your eyes

That day we made love

I'm going to call my little child Amber Jones


(Hey supermodel, set the rest of us free)

Which is exactly what happened

(There ain't no genie in the bottle or in that magazine)

Let me ask you one question and it goes

(Hey supermodel)

What's it like being pretty?


Now, everyone knows

That if you're going to run a successful cafe

You have to hire the prettiest waitress


Amber turns out had been working

At the Pepperlunch Café

Just like her mother did 20 years earlier

And it boils down to this very simple doctrine

Given by Ralph Habbasham, the owner


Ralph says the customer is always right

The customers here are mostly men

And though it don't seem

From table 2 to 16, all men do is dream

Of falling in love, just like women


Now watching from table 20 was a man from New York city

Who is most impressed with Amber's poses

He said, Come over here, missy, I got a kind of proposition

That is, if you're willing to listen



(Hey supermodel, set the rest of us free)

(There ain't no genie in the bottle or in that magazine)

Come with me

(Hey supermodel)


And she was just everywhere

I mean little girls wanted to be like her

Little boys wanted to be with her

And even mothers somehow altered their physique

Just to be a little close to what Amber represented


One day Amber, who likes the Sweetbrush diner

Where she used to work, really missed those coconut cake cucumbers

And made out with one giant missile on the top of her forehead

Poor little Amber couldn't do a thing about it


And her poor career went kinda downhill

As the people outside her hotel room penthouse cried out

Well, you know what they cried out


(Hey supermodel, set the rest of us free)

Sing along with me gals

(There ain't no genie in the bottle, or in that magazine)

(Hey supermodel)

What's it like being a teen dream?


Shackles, shackles, shackles on my heart

I loved you from the very first day, from the start

But you left, call it theft of the heart, bring me back the spark

Pretty girl, pretty princess, that is left


Bright lights in the glitter, the shine of the night, right

You dreamed of the city 'cause you dreamed of flight

But it's Timber, watch these trees that are falling

Pretty little princess with no one to call


It's a small town, now girl, it doesn't seem so small

First love, fifth grade, first kiss at the mall with me

Y'all, check it with the degrees, bring it back on the MIC

'Cause the man's on his knees

Small town ways in the G's from grade

Bring me back sunny days, we's that praise, haze


Y'all tripping through the maze everyday

In the mind want the grape from the vine that was mine

Come back, y'all, to the very first day that we met

'Cause I must call it theft, y'all


Protection and selection of my memories

Poet on the mic with degrees saying, please

Princess, y'all, my supermodel girl

Bring you back, pretty princess

'Cause I like to rock your world

One time, smooth, sweet like wine
