Have you met my grandmother, covered in tattoos
Addicted to graffiti since she’s 22
Once they were fire-fierce pictures, dragons colored bright
Now the colors faded, just blue guiding lines
Once homesick sailors so young
Out for the night having fun
To show their buddies they’re so strong
Tattooed with a heart that says “MOM”
The body beautiful
So show your mark
The body beautiful
Just show your mark
An’ her skin looks dirty, from the needles’ ink
Every outline moves under old wrinkled skin
It was quite a fashion back in her younger days
Now it’s gone full circle, young kids go the same way
Do you ever get the strange need
The needle, the ink makes you bleed
The picture is permanently fixed
Does a lifetime of doubt follow it?
The body beautiful
So show your mark
The body beautiful
Just show your mark
Once homesick sailors so young
Out for the night having fun
To show their friends they are so strong
Tattooed with a heart that says “MOM”
The body beautiful
So show your mark
The body beautiful
Just show your mark
The body beautiful
So show your mark
(Make me bleed)
The body beautiful
Just show your mark
