Joanne

Joanne isn't pretty, and at that I'm being kind
But you know it's such a pity 'cause she's got a clever mind
But even with a cunning wit
It don't help a bit (She can't hlep it, Joanne can't help it)

Joanne isn't slender, well, the truth is that she's fat
But Joanne's heart is tender yet, but that ain't where it's at
Now, let's face it, she's real fat
And that is that (She can't hlep it, Joanne can't help it)

Joanne, I feel so badly
Well, you got so much more to offer that doesn't show
But I guess the world will never know
I'm sorry
Joanne, I feel so sadly
If they could see inside they'd see you got so much more
Of what ev'rybody's looking for
I'm sorry, Joanne

And Joanne is flat-chested, and she's got a crooked nose
But Joanne is interested in poetry and prose
But that ain't what it takes
And that's the bridge (She can't hlep it, Joanne can't help it)

Joanne, I feel so badly
Well, you got so much more to offer that doesn't show
But I guess the world will never know
I'm sorry
Joanne, I feel so sadly
If they could see inside they'd see you got so much more
Of what ev'rybody's looking for
I'm sorry, Joanne

Pa-pa, pa, pa-pa, pa, pa, pa (Joanne, Jo-oh-oh)
Pa, pa, pa, pa-pa, pa
Pa-pa, pa, pa-pa, pa, pa, pa (Joanne, Jo-oh-oh)
Pa, pa, pa, pa-pa, pa
Pa-pa, pa-pa, pa, pa, pa, pa
Pa-pa, pa, pa-pa

Joanne, I feel so badly
Well, you got so much more to offer that doesn't show
But I guess the world will never know
I'm sorry
Joanne, I feel so sadly
If they could see inside they'd see you got so much more
Of what ev'rybody's looking for
I'm sorry, Joanne
