Lyrics
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
