Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I buy her all the right clothes
And pretty jewels to wear
My friends say she's a dumb blonde
But they don't know she dyes her hair
She thinks the fighting in Central America's easily solved
But what to wear to Bel-Air premieres
Is a problem she could never resolve
[Chorus]
She's an airhead
Stungun and mace, Kharmann Ghia plates say "Lost in Space"
And she's an airhead
Thousands in trust, cusp Aquarius, get serious
And she's an airhead
Tinted contacts don't change the fact that black is black
And she's an airhead
And while I'm impressed with the length of those legs
She's not an intellectual giant
[Verse 2]
She'd like to model, or maybe act
Or start a magazine
Before she signs any big contracts
She better learn to read
And that's a fact!
But in her dreams she's the queen of the fashion regime
You ask me do I love you
Does the Pope live in the woods?
Quod erat demonstrandum, baby
"Oh, you speak French!"
[Chorus]
She is an airhead
Stungun and mace, Kharmann Ghia plates say "Lost in Space"
And she's an airhead
Thousands in trust, cusp Aquarius, get serious
And she's an airhead
Tinted contacts don't change the fact that black is black
And she's an airhead
And while I'm impressed with the size of that chest
She's not an intellectual giant
Ow
[Bridge]
Woo!
Woo!
Woo!
Ah-ah-ah
Woo!
[Verse 3]
Sweet and low and oh-so
Little Ms. Dora Jarre
Safe sex and fishnets
And could you walk me to my car?
Oh, thank you!
Pa!
She's losing faith in a world that is out of control
She's gonna nix politics, she's taking up volleyball!
Volleyball! Why?
[Chorus]
'Cause she's an airhead
Stungun and mace, Kharmann Ghia plates say "Lost in Space"
And she's an airhead
Thousands in trust, cusp Aquarius, get serious
And she's an airhead
And now the time's come for the end of my song
Don't get me wrong
If she's an airhead, it has to be said
It was men, made her that way
It was us, made her that way
It was us, made her that way
Oh, airhead!
Ow!
[Outro]
I like, I like
Airhead!
