you pushed yourself out there today
with another clinic snip
another small cut to your dignity
look in the mirror baby, get a grip
that's the signpost ahead of you
but the next stop ain't your twilight zone
i don't wanna be a puppet just like them
flashing on the pages of those magazines
i got this little emergency
a mascara emergency
maybe you can't look in the mirror no more
maybe that aging thing is just too much
i buy all my make-up at the 5-n-dime
i don't need your surgeon's knife, i'm doing fine
your freak show frozen face is scaring me
you're the number 1 botox attraction guaranteed
i don't wanna be a puppet just like them
dancing on the pages of those magazines
i got this little emergency
a mascara emergency
long-legged, slim-hipped, double-D
that's what you show me on M-TV
billboards, magazines and TV shows
botox, lipo, implants, a new nose
i don't wanna look like that or look like them
tripping off the pages of normality
slipping from the image of society
slipping from the image of society
