beauty contest
(g. stefani, t. kanal)
from the recording of return of saturn
damsel in distress is quite submissive
look how somber my vanity is
a famine, a human creature
superficial seducing detour
i'm going to the mall for the cookie cutter
the ugly duckling will always suffer
contaminated standards, don’t try to fight it
i better get back on my diet
obsessed with a beauty contest
beauty contest
how my vanity is such a mess
beauty contest
i'm obsessed
reduce myself or cut the strict restrictions
not sexy enough without the regulations
i mold and pull, I can’t fit my fading features
born to blossom and bloom to perish
obsessed with a beauty contest
beauty contest
oh, i've got to get out of this mess
beauty contest
i'm obsessed
and i've fallen, i can't help myself
i’m feeling envious of all the rest
your bringing out the lemming in me
a victim of the cattle-call disease
not easy to be me
i feel swollen
obsessed with a beauty contest
beauty contest
how my vanity is such a mess
obsessed with a beauty contest
obsessed with a beauty contest
beauty contest
i’ve got to get out of this mess
obsessed with a beauty contest
obsessed with a beauty contest
beauty contest
how my vanity is such a mess
caught in the beauty contest
caught in the beauty contest
caught in the beauty contest
caught in the beauty contest
caught in the beauty contest
and i feel swollen
how my vanity is such a mess
my vanity's a mess.
