Lyrics

Lyrics by Ron Moretti. Vocal duet, Wonderful Exile.

PUFF, THE MAKE-UP ARTIST, LIVES A LIFE OF EASE,
HIS ONLY JOB IS TO TEND THE DOME,
WHEN MR. TONY’S ON TV.

AT TIMES HIS HEAD WILL GLISTEN,
WHERE MR. TONY ONCE HAD HAIR,
PUFF MOVES IN WITH POWDER
AND ELIMINATES THE GLARE.
HE SHADES IT FROM THE SUN
AND THE GLOW OF TV LIGHTS.
MAKING SURE THAT TONY’S HEAD
DOESN’T SHINE TOO BRIGHT.

BUT IT WAS BOUND TO HAPPEN,
MR. TONY APPROACHED PUFF,
COME JOIN ME ON THE RADIO
AND BRING YOUR MAKE-UP STUFF.
ON CALL TWENTY-FOUR-SEVEN
IS THE MAN JUST KNOWN AS PUFF,
SO ANY TIME T.K. MAY SAY,
HEY PUFF I NEED A BUFF.

PUFF, THE MAKE-UP ARTIST, BUSY AS HE CAN BE.
PROTECTING THAT FAMOUS NOGGIN,
ON THE RADIO AND TV.

    JF, I assumed this was another imaginary Mr. Tony fable from Ron Moretti. Ron, are you running a talent agency or something?? Keep 'em coming!
