Lyrics
I?m so depressed ?cause I?m underdressed
I just found the truth in the teenage bible
On page 63, I found the teenage creed
Lose weight, look great and look out for number one
The beauty magazines make me feel so ugly
The beauty magazines make me feel so?
I?m so obsessed with the perfect chest
Will I ever be with anybody?
Who will like me, even thought it?s just me
And put up with my less than perfect body?
The beauty magazines make me feel so ugly
The beauty magazines make me feel so bad
If I had a dime for every line they?ve sold me,
?You need to do something more to make you civilized?
and I sang, "Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, what do you want from me teenage bible?
"Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, what do you want from me teenage bible?
And I?ve been hanging on to what I've got
And I?ve been losing it, 'cause I can't do, all I want to do, do-do-do, do-do-doooo
I'll buy tighter jeans, read teen magazines
I'll do anything to be anybody
On page 63, I found the teenage creed
Lose weight, look great and look out for number one
The beauty magazines make me feel so ugly
The beauty magazines make me feel so bad
If I had a dime for every line they?ve sold me,
?You need to do something more to make you civilized?
and I sang, "Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, what do you want from me teenage bible?
