I wanna be s-k-i-n-n-y

S-k-i-n-n-y

Oh yeah...

Say that I'm doin' it for myself, doin' it for my health, it's a lie

Sometimes, I try on the jeans, oh-oh, when I was sixteen and I cry.

Oh, it's a shame I'm to blame and I hate that I'm not her size

Oh, I complain 'bout the way I was made, and I don't know why.

I wanna be s-k-i-n-n-y

Mm, mm, s-k-i-n-n-y

Why?

Strawberry shortcake, my twentieth birthday

I'm starin' at my waist, I'm tapin' up my legs

I've never been thinner, I've never been sicker

I wanna feel better, I wanna be thicker.

I don't wanna be s-k-i-n-n-y

Why?

Why?

S-k-i-n-n-y

Mm, mm...

Why do I wanna be you and you wanna be me?

Why are we so obsessed with bein' skinny?
