Mark volman & howard kaylan:
She painted up her face.
She sat before the mirror.
She painted up her face.
She drew the mirror nearer.

Practisissing, practiss, practising!

The stare
The stare
The secret stare she would use
If a worthy-looking victim should appear.

Practisissing, practiss, practising!
( ah-hoo-ah-hoo-wah-hoo-wahhhh )
Practisissing, practiss, practising!
