i don't wanna wear that
it only makes me look fat
time to tone my thighs-- gotta lose another size, yeah!
what a way to wanna be
exfoliate--look great!
feel guilty 'bout what you ate
you're buyin' all the books--
to learn the latest looks, yeah
what a way to wanna be
we like to buy, we like to spend,
to keep up with the latest trend
but we don't get no satisfaction
living like a slave to fashion
no more thinking for yourself,
just get it off a shelf
[chorus:]
oh--oh, why be perfect--no--oh,
it's not worth it
don't be so obsessed--c'mon give it a rest
this is not some contest--just do your best
'cause no--oh body's perfect!
what a way to wanna be
moisturize, exercise, erase the
rings around your eyes
cover what you can,
get a coppertone tan, yeah
what a way to wanna be!
stabilize the mood you're in--
you're back on diet food again
bigger is the best, but only
in the chest, yeah!
what a way to wanna be
we like to buy, we like to spend,
to keep up with the latest trend
but we don't get no satisfaction
living like a slave to fashion
no more thinking for yourself,
just get it off a shelf
[repeat chorus]
it's so very--unnecessary
yeah, how insane--to be so vain
it's so synthetic--i just don't get it
i don't get it, baby, yeah, yeah
don't be so obsessed--c'mon give it a rest
this is not some contest--just do your best
'cause no--oh body's perfect!
(ooooohhhhhh)
oh, no--oh body's perfect
no--oh, it's not worth it
don't be so obsessed
(no--oh body's perfect)
this is not some contest
(no--oh body's perfect)
perfect! what a way to wanna be
