I was constantly told

With the trends that they set it's a pity

Now the beautiful people in the magazines

Well they weren't much different than we might act

If there was that many others that closely packed
E minorEm        D MajorD
It's an ancient idea
C majorC           D MajorD
But it struck me so clear in the city
