Lyrics:

(This is Pauline take two
1... 2... 3... 4...)

[Verse 1]
Who shot down the playground something's missing
Try not to speak aloud they're still listening, now -
Now all over town everybody's in selling pictures of Pauline

[Verse 2]
But Pauline's alright you know, she's just flighty
And all the things she knows are downright tiny, now -
(ah-ahhh-ahh-ahh-ahh)
Now all over town everybody's in selling pictures of Pauline (Pauline)
Mm Pauline (Pauline)

[Chorus]
(oooh-ooh-ooh) - (oooh-ooh-ooh)
Oh, I wouldn't say that she's much too look at;
I wouldn't say she's much to talk about;
But I'd be blind if I said I didn't see her face in the magazine (=in the magazine)

[Pre-Chorus]
(oooh-ooh
Oooh-ooh
Ah-ahh)

[Chorus]
(Pauline
Oooh-ooh-ooh) - (oooh-ooh-ooh)
Oh, I wouldn't say that she's much too look at;
I wouldn't say she's much to talk about;
But I'd be blind if I said I didn't see her face in the magazine (=in the magazine)

[Verse 1/Outro]
Who shot down the playground something's missing
Try not to speak aloud they're still listening now
(ah-ahhh-ahh-ahh-ahh)
Now all over town everybody's in selling pictures of Pauline (Pauline)
Mm Pauline (Pauline)
Mm Pauline (=Pauline)
