You're not Ms. Rheingold or Ms. Clairol
Or an ad for 'Learn To Draw'
And you don't have the prettiest pair
Of legs I ever saw
But cellophane don't move me
And can't turn my life around
You're the nicest piece of heart and soul
That I have ever found, I've ever found
You're not a Farrah or a Brigitte
Or a Raquel pussy cat
Twenty generations of girls
Have tried to look like that
But class like yours ain't on the screen
And it's finally made me think
You can lead this horse to Hollywood
But you cannot make me drink
(Can't make him drink)
I love you honey, you're the one for me
And it comes naturally
I don't want an image, I don't want a movie star
I just want you, baby, the way you are
You don't fill out the old bikini
Like a Playboy bunny doll
In fact in that department
You've got little there at all
But in modern times we've gone beyond
The Tarzan's and the Jane's
While some just use their bodies
Others use their brains, darling, remember brains?
I love you honey, you're the one for me
And it comes naturally
I don't want an image, I don't want a movie star
I just want you, baby, the way you are
Bogart called them baby
Sinatra called them dames
And Boyer calls them ladies
(Norman Mailer calls us names)
But I don't need a label
To know what you mean to me
So I'll just make it simple and call you frequently
(I'll call you frequently)
I love you honey, you're the one for me
And it comes naturally
I don't want an image, I don't want a movie star
I just want you, baby, the way you are
I love you honey, you're the one for me
And it comes naturally
I don't want an image, I don't want a movie star
I just want you, baby, the way you are
I just want you, baby, the way you are
