[Intro]
Barbie, you're beautiful
You make me feel
My Barbie doll is really real
Rea-real
Barbie, you make me feel
[Verse]
They told me not to trim my body, so I went and shaved it
Makeup used to run down, but now they have to face it
They're marketing my gender solely for their own attainment
I'm sorry manager, I think I need a new arrangement
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Plastic proportions, a heart of stone
Bleaching my scalp is all I have known
Surrounded by frauds, I feel so alone
(At least you're happy though, right?)
[Chorus]
You drеss me up, then strip me down
Taking control, yеah, you like how that sounds?
Pick me up, then throw me away
I'll be the Barbie in your fucking play
Build me a home, burn it to the floor
I'll do it just for you, so I can be adored
What happens to me? I haven't a say
Yeah, I'll be the Barbie in your fucking play
[Verse]
I'm perfection, why would no one ever look at me?
Taking medication, hoping one day that they're curing me
Synchronized myself to match all their desires
Infantilization 'til the day that I expire
[Pre-Chorus 2]
We're living a lie to achieve success
If I'm wearing clothes then I'm overdressed
Addicted to hurting, I must confess
(Your Barbie's happy though, right?)
[Chorus]
You dress me up, then strip me down
Taking control, yeah, you like how that sounds?
Pick me up, then throw me away
I'll be the Barbie in your fucking play
Build me a home, burn it to the floor
I'll do it just for you, so I can be adored
What happens to me? I haven't a say
Yeah, I'll be the Barbie in your fucking play
(I'll be the Barbie in your fucking play)
[Outro]
Barbie, you make me feel
Barbie, you make me feel
Barbie
You make me feel
Barbie
You make me feel
Barbie, you're beautiful
You make me feel
My Barbie doll is really real
