Well, she's fashionably lean
Hey and she's fashionably late
She'll never gonna wreck a scene
She'll never break a date
But now she's no drag

Just watch the way that she walks
She's a twentieth century fox
She's a twentieth century fox
She's got world, she's got the world

All locked up inside a plastic box
She's a twentieth century fox, oh yeah
She's the queen of cool
And she's the lady who waits

Sent to manless school
She never gonna hesitate
Well know she don't waste her time
On all this elementary talk

She's a twentieth century fox
She's a twentieth century fox
She got the world, babe,
Now she got this world

She got it all locked up
Inside some kind of plastic plastic box
She's a Twentieth century fox, oh yeah
She's a Twentieth century fox, oh yeah

She's a Twentieth century fox, oh yeah
She's a Twentieth century fox
