Make Up To Break Up - Siouxsie And The Banshees

Spots warts and blemishes

Deep receding crevices

Seem to disappear

With foundation on my face

Foundation on my face!

Shadow conjures cheekbones

Hides a nasal disgrace

A disfigured atrocity

J-j-jutting out of place

Jutting out of place!

Make up to break up Make up to break up Make up to break up Make up, break up, make up To break up Girls with eyes like swimming pools

Are the ones that I despise

'Cause I need lots of colour

To hide my bloodshot eyes

Hide my bloodshot eyes!

Now to paint by number

Over the cavernous pit

Lots of glossy red

To hide my pale cracked lips

Hide my pale cracked lips!

Make up to break up Make up to break up Make up to break up Make up, break up, make up Now comes the break up From the make up Just like the devil’s rain

See-see-colours run insane

Colours run insane!

Foundation starts to tremble

My nose a grotesque abstract

My mouth a gaping gap

My eyes are shooting blood

My face is cracking up My face is cracking up!

Make up to break up
