Description
An in-your-face, high-powered country anthem that speaks openly, honestly, and bluntly to a society that places way too much emphasis on looks.
Lyrics
Don't put me in a box and slap on labels I'm not your cookie-cutter, manufactured clay to mold If I don't fit into your sample size, well that's out of my control Does that make me un-beautiful? You can tell me I'm ugly, that I'll never be pretty Cos I'm either too fat or I'm far too skinny I'll keep it real, you keep your plastic I am more than a measure You can tell me I'll never be anything more than I see in the mirror Close me in and make me feel small But I ain't gonna be your Barbie doll Don't touch my hair or fix my makeup You're not my mother, stop acting like one No TV screens or magazines can make me what I'm not You can't change me into what you want You can tell me I'm ugly, that I'll never be pretty Cos I'm either too fat or I'm far too skinny I'll keep it real, you keep your plastic I am more than a measure You can tell me I'll never be anything more than I see in the mirror Close me in and make me feel small but I aint' gonna be your Barbie doll To any boy or girl who's ever made me feel Less than what I'm worth You don't own me Tell them you don't own me You can tell me I'm ugly, that I'll never be pretty Cos I'm either too fat or I'm far too skinny I am more than a measure You can tell me I'll never be anything more than I see in the mirror Close me in and make me feel small but I ain't gonna be No I ain't gonna be I ain't gonna be your Barbie Doll
