My mama told me when I was hatched
|
Act like a superstar
|
Save your allowance, buy a bubble dress
|
And someday you will go far
|
Now on red carpets, well, I'm hard to miss
|
The press follows everywhere I go
|
I'll poke your eye out with a dress like this
|
Back off and enjoy the show!
|
|
I'm sure my critics will say it's a grotesque display
|
Well, they can bite me, baby -- I perform this way
|
I might be wearin' Swiss cheese or maybe covered with bees
|
It doesn't mean I'm crazy -- I perform this way
|
|
Ooo, my little monsters pay... lots 'cause I perform this way
|
Baby, I perform this way
|
Ooo, don't worry, I'm okay... hey, I just perform this way
|
I'm not crazy, I perform this way
|
|
I'll be a troll or evil queen
|
I'll be a human jelly bean
|
'Cause every day is Halloween
|
For me...
|
|
I'm so completely original
|
My new look is all the rage
|
I'll wrap my small intestines 'round my neck
|
And set fire to myself on stage
|
I'll wear a porcupine on my head
|
On a W-H-I-M
|
And for no reason now I'll sing in French
|
Excusez-moi, Qui a pŁĘtŁĘ? (Who cut the cheese?)
|
|
Got my straight jacket today, it's made of gold lamŁĘ
|
No, not because I'm crazy - I perform this way
|
I strap prime rib to my feet, cover myself with raw meat
|
I'll bet you've never seen a skirt steak worn this way
|
|
Don't be offended when you see
|
My latest pop monstrosity
|
I'm strange, weird, shocking, odd, bizarre
|
I'm Frankenstein, I'm Avatar
|
There's nothing too embarrassing
|
I'll honestly do anything
|
But wear white after Labor Day
|
'Cause baby, I perform this way
|
|
Hope you won't think it's clichŁĘ if I go nude today
|
Don't call the cops now, baby, I perform this way
|
No reason I should regret all the attention I get
|
I'm not completely crazy, I perform this way, yeah
|
|
I perform this way-hey, I perform this way-hey
|
I'm always deviating from the norm this way-hey
|
I perform this way-hey, I perform this way-hey
|
I'm really not insane -- I just perform this way-hey
|
