Pam Ayres

Picture: Gary Medlicott

The English comedian, Pam Ayres, wrote the following charming song about the Wonderbra:

I bought myself a Wonderbra

for fourteen ninety-nine.

It looked so good on the model girl's chest,

and I hoped it would on mine.

I took it from the packaging

and when I tried it on,

the Wonderbra restored to me

all I believed had gone...

 

chorus:

Lets all salute the Wonderbra,

the Wonderbra, the Wonderbra,

for fourteen ninety-nine.

 

It gave me such a figure,

I can't believe it's mine.

I showed it to my husband

and it made his eyeballs shine.

And when I served the breakfast,

the kids cried out "Hooray!

Here comes our darling mother,

with her bosoms on a tray!"

Pam Ayres, quoted in The Age, 22.7.99
