Beauty Contest

no doubt - beauty contest
album: everything in time


damsel in distress is quite submissive
look how somber my vanity is
a feminine human creature
superficial, seducing detour
i'm going to the mall for the cookie cutter
the ugly duckling will always suffer
contaminated standards, i try to fight it
i better get back on my diet
obsessed with the beauty contest
beauty contest
how'd my vanity get such a mess?
i'm obsessed
reduce myself, i got the strict restrictions
not sexy enough without the regulations
a melting point countdown the fading features
born to blossom and bloom to perish
oh, i've got to get out of this mess
and i've fallen, i can't help myself
i'm feeling envious of all the rest
you're bringing out the lemming in me
a victim of the cattle call disease
not easy to be me
i feel so lame
i've got to get out of this mess
caught up in the beauty contest
and i feel so lame
(child) my vanity's a mess
