Could dress up
D
To get love
But guess what?
G
I'm never gonna be that girl

Who's living in a Barbie world

Could wake up
D
And make up
And play dumb

Pretending that I need a boy
Em
Who's gonna treat me like a toy

Like diamond rings

Oh, I don't know what you've been told
D
But this gal right here's gonna rule the world
G Em
Yeah, that is where I'm gonna be because I wanna be
No, I don't wanna sit still, look pretty

You get off on your 9 to 5

Dream of picket fences and trophy wives

But no, I'm never gonna be 'cause I don't wanna be
No, I don't wanna sit still, look pretty
