lyrics

Oh Gillette Man -
Your chin is so smooth
There's no way
That the girls can resist you.
You hair it shines.
Your teeth are so white,
Their gleaming and glowing
It lights up the night.
Your chest has got just the right amount of hair
With fine big muscles built up there.
Your shoulders are broad.
Your nose is just right.
All the girls reckon
You're just as cool as ice.
And so do I.

Oh I wanna be like Gillette Man.
Gillette Man
I wanna be like you.

That beautiful girl I saw you with on tv -
If I was like you, do you reckon she'd go for me?
Would she snuggle up beside me with hot cups of tea?
We'd sit and swap stories til quarter to 3.
I'd dazzle everyone with my rapier wit
And I bet no-one would ever give me shit.
So tell me Gillette Man, how'd you get to be
Just like you, and I'm just plain old me?
It's just not fair.

And if I was like you
There's nothing I couldn't do
If I could get my chin that smooth.
If I could get my jaw that square
I could go anywhere.

Well the other night I was sleeping in my bed
Gillette Man appeared in a dream in my head.
He said to me "Son, you wanna be this cool
Listen here now and I'll tell you what to do"
...

Oh I wanna be like Gillette Man.
Gillette Man
I wanna be like you.

(omg you're so fantastic)
