lyrics

GIRL WITH IRON NOSE

In the.. Year Twenty One 77
Don't really know if there's a hell or a heaven
This is the time of the post human bein'
Mutations, altered genes

She was out on a date but she didn't get far
She was ejected from a flying car
And when they tried to put her back together again
It didn't go exactly like the way they had planned

She was the girl with the iron nose
Everybody knows

A decision was made --she joined the machines
Trans-humanism became quite routine
And now she's back in her brand new clothes
Robotic arms and an iron nose

Now she's out on a date but she just can't stay
People stopped and stared or they ran away
It hurt her so much that she hid from sight
Smashing mirrors all through the night

She was the girl with the iron nose
Everybody knows

No one was going to stand in her way
Still she cried and she cried every day
And then one day she had to stand up and fight
She knew right then that it would be alright.

So she started to rock and started to box
Robot rock knocks them out of the sox
Became a super post human being
On the cover of a magazine.

She was out on a date but she didn't get far
She was ejected from a flying car
And when they tried to put her back together again
It didn't go exactly like the way they had planned

Who would have known this would be her fate
She's the rock superstar with the metal face plate
Given the grace of time and space
They will remember her beautiful face

She was the girl with the iron nose
Everybody knows

La la la
