Ah've got ma curlers in ma hair
Big muscles everywhere
Ma stockings are rolled doon around ma feet
Ah've got erms like big Hulk Hogan
Ma voice is gruff its not soft spoken
Huge calves fae cerrying shoppin up the street
Varicose veins are ma affliction
Sittin at the fire is ma addiction
Nae point in me pretending I am sweet
If ye want tae know whit I am thinkin
When ye see I'm sat there blinkin
Its how tae get ma man there oot his seat
If ye really must enquire
Why Am dressed in this attire
Its because ah feel a bit like Maggie McGreet
