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
