Lyrics

through high school she got good grades cause she was coming to the age
where she would need a new pair of breasts for college which was weeks away
so mama bought her the plastic gifts and also shoes with real high lifts
she did it so that sheâ??d fit in to a college full of plastic kids... ainâ??t that right... babe

with two new tits and broken legs she quickly found her place
under a boy who knocked her out took care business and then left town
she went to court to find out his name they asked is this some kind of game?
the way you look weâ??d do the same but donâ??t be sad someone will stay... babe

babe!!!!!
you gotta understand
the way you think you oughtta look
was made up by a man

the plastic started to take control it seeped into her flesh and bone
and on her graduation day she received a plastic soul
complete with Botox in her lips, electrolysis and she starved her hips
cause food doesnâ??t taste the same when your guts are stuck in a plastic cage
....ainâ??t that right babe

from then on she had new eyes they only looked at the outside
of anyone or anything she came upon at any time
but thatâ??s the cost of the fee when one lets her self believe
that sheâ??s alive and free in a world defined by equality... babe

babe!!!!!
you gotta understand
the way you think you oughtta look
was made up by a man
