All Dolled Up |
| First, we’ll pluck a little here |
| Then, we’ll tuck a little there |
| Then, we’ll cut a little loose and apply a little mousse |
| To what seems to be your hair |
| Then, we’ll do a little tweeze |
| Then, we’ll do a little more |
| Then, we’ll wax, and then, we’ll bleach |
| 'Til you’re smoother than a peach |
| Or at least a little smoother than you were before |
| To me, you look okay |
| But if you truly want me to |
| We’ll sculpt and mold |
| And change and fix you anyway |
| Hey (Hey), we’re getting all dolled up |
| Going with the flow, looking so appealing |
| Hey (Hey), 'cause when you’re all dolled up |
| No one has to know just how flawed you’re feeling |
| Hey, if you can hide what’s shining through |
| You’ll see a whole new you |
| So we’ll try a little mask |
| It’ll open up your pores |
| Then we’ll rub some lotion in |
| Then we’ll soften up your skin |
| So it doesn’t look like yours |
| Then we’ll moisten up your lips (Yeah, yeah) |
| Buff your toenails to a T (Yeah, yeah) |
| And we’ll powder up your nose |
| Or in your case, I suppose |
| We’ll just put a little powder where your nose should be |
| Hey (Hey), we’re getting all dolled up |
| Blend in with the crowd like we know we’ve got to |
| Hey (Hey), 'cause when you’re all dolled up |
| That’s when you’re allowed to pretend you’re not you |
| Hey, once you conceal what’s real and true |
| You’ll see a whole new you |
| Everyone, choose your weapons! |
| Step one, find the trendiest of outfits |
| Step two, pick the one that just about fits |
| Step three, this is absolutely key |
| Choose it not for you, but for who you wanna be |
| And then, once you know which look you’re into |
| Say when, and I guess we can begin to squeeze |
| And stretch and stuff until we nail the whole display |
| Hey (Hey), we’re getting all dolled up |
| Feeling fresh and free, looking oh, so juice |
| Hey (Hey), 'cause when you’re all dolled up |
| People only see what you want them to see |
| Hey, once who you are is hidden from view |
| You’ll be a whole new you |
| You’ll be a whole new you |
| You’ll be a whole new you |
| Yeah, we’re getting all dolled up |
| Gosh, though how I wish that I didn’t need to |
| Sure, look at me, all dolled up |
| Stuck playing a part someone else agreed to |
| Ooh, if I could choose who I could be |
| I’d choose a whole new me |
| I’d choose a whole new me |
| I’d choose a whole new me |
