 I don't wanna wear that

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

Oh--oh,  why be perfect--no--oh,
 it's not worth it

 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
 (same as above)
 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
It's so very--unnecessary
 <(x5]
 Yeah, how insane--to be so vain
 <(x5]
 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!
 (Don't play)
 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!
