I Found That Essence Rare

Aim for the body, rare you'll see it on TV The worst thing in 1954 was the bikini See the girl on the TV, dressed in the bikini She doesn't think so but she's dressed for the H-bomb For the H-bomb And I found that essence rare, it's what I looked for And I knew I'd get what I asked for Aim for the country fair, you read it in the papers The worst happens any week, a scandal on the front page See the happy pair smiling close, like they're monkeys They wouldn't think so, but they're holding themselves down Holding themselves down And I found that essence rare, it's what I looked for And I knew I'd get what I asked for And I found that essence rare, it's what I looked for And I knew I'd get what I asked for Aim for politicians fair, who'll treat your vote-hope well The last thing they'll ever do is act in your interest They look at the world through their Polaroid glasses And things seem a whole lot better for the working classes Working classes And I found that essence rare, it's what I looked for And I knew I'd get what I asked for And I found that essence rare, it's what I looked for And I knew I'd get what I asked for
