Looking at himself but wishing he was someone else
|
Because the posters on the wall they don't look like him at all
|
|
So he ties it up, he tucks it in, he pulls it back, and gives a grin
|
Laughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at all
|
|
He gets his courage from the can,
|
It makes him feel like a man
|
Because he's loving all the ladies
|
But the ladies don't love him at all
|
|
Cause when he's not drunk
|
He's only stuck on himself
|
And then he has the nerve
|
To say he needs a decent girl
|
|
Looking at herself but wishing she was someone else
|
Because the body of the doll it don't look like hers at all
|
|
So she straps it on, she sucks it in, she throws it up, and gives a grin
|
Laughing at herself because she knows she ain't that at all
|
|
All caught up in the trends
|
Well the truth began to bend
|
And the next thing you know man
|
There just ain't no truth left at all
|
|
Cause when the pretty girl walks
|
She walks so proud
|
And when the pretty girl laughs
|
Oh man, she laughs so loud
|
|
And if it ain't this then its that
|
As a matter of fact
|
She hasn't had a day to relax
|
Since she has lost her ability to think clearly
|
|
Well I'm an energetic hypothetic version of another person
|
Check out my outsides there ain't nothing in here
|
|
Well I'm a superficial, systematic, music television addict
|
Check out my outsides there ain't nothing in
|
|
Here comes another one, just like the other one
|
Looking at himself but wishing he was someone else
|
Because the posters on the wall they don't look like a him
|
And so he ties it up he tucks it in, he pulls it back and gives a grin
|
Laughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at all
|
He knows he ain't loved at all
|
