STEF LANG - PAPER DOLL LYRICS
Everything I see that's on the TV
Getting' me down I don't wanna be me
Feel that pressure, pushin' on me
Gotta have the looks and the perfect body
Living on a treadmill, skip my dinner
Work my body till I get thinner
Running with the girls across the nation
Caught up in a world of thin-spiration
Nails and lipstick
Just a quick fix
Guaranteed to make you shine
On the surface
Picture perfect
Is something missing deep inside?
No I don't wanna feel unnatural
Living like I'm one dimensional
I'm tired of being told how to have it all
I don't wanna be just a paper doll
Paper doll, paper doll
I ain't gonna be just a paper doll
Paper doll, paper doll
I ain't gonna be just a paper doll
Still there's things that I'm ashamed of
I cover my flaws with all my make up
Tried every tip in the magazines
No matter what I do I still I feel ugly
I follow these 10 easy steps
They tell me it'll boost my confidence
They're so good, they're so tricky,
Make you do anything to just feel pretty
Nails and lipstick
Just a quick fix
Guaranteed to make you shine
On the surface
Picture perfect
Something's missing deep inside
No I don't wanna feel unnatural
Living like I'm one dimensional
I'm tired of being told how to have it all
I ain't gonna be just a paper doll
Tonight I'm gonna take my mirror, mirror off the wall
Tonight I'm gonna burn gonna burn, gonna burn, my paper dolls
I'm gonna burn, burn, burn, burn, burn 'em all
I'm gonna burn, burn, burn, my paper dolls
No I don't wanna feel unnatural
Living like I'm one dimensional
I'm tired of being told how to have it all
I don't wanna be just a paper doll
Paper doll, paper doll
I ain't gonna be just a paper doll
Paper doll, paper doll
I ain't gonna be just a paper doll
I ain't gonna be just a paper doll, a paper doll
I ain't gonna be just a paper doll
