Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I don't want to wear that

It only makes me look fat

Time to tone my thighs

Gotta lose another size, yeah

What a way to wanna be

[Verse 2]

Exfoliate, look great

Feel guilty 'bout what you eat

You're buyin' all the books

To learn the latest looks, yeah

What a way to wanna be

[Verse 3]

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

[Verse 4]

Oh, why be perfect?

No, it's not worth it

Don't be so obsessed

Come on, give it a rest

This is not some contest

Just do your best

'Cause nobody's perfect

What a way to wanna be

[Verse 5]

Moisturize, exercise

Erase the rings around your eyes

Cover what you can

Get a Coppertone tan, yeah

What a way to wanna be

[Verse 6]

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

[Verse 7]

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

[Verse 8]

Oh, why be perfect?

No, it's not worth it

Don't be so obsessed

Come on, give it a rest

This is not some contest

Just do your best

'Cause nobody's perfect

What a way to wanna be

[Verse 9]

It's so very unnecessary

And how insane to be so vain

It's so synthetic, I just don't get it

I don't get it, baby

Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

[Verse 10]

Don't be so obsessed

Come on, give it a rest

This is not some contest

Just do your best

'Cause nobody's perfect

[Verse 11]

Oh, no, nobody's perfect

No, it's not worth it

Don't be so obsessed

(Nobody's perfect)

This is not some contest

(Nobody's perfect)

What a way to wanna be
