Imperfectly Perfect

I can’t help being depressed
When I look down at my chest
Oh yes, my chest it might as well be nonexistent
How can I ever compete
With 34 double D’s?

And I’m rollin’ my eyes
When I look down at my thighs
They might as well tape everything that I eat
to my legs
I am too broke for the knife
Too lazy to exercise
But if I had hazel eyes
Maybe I could be fly

(chorus)
If I had no cellulite
Big breasts and pockets real wide
Then maybe I
Maybe I, I, I could be so fly
And if I had a small waist
I’d make the boys go insane
And maybe I
Maybe I, I, I could be so fly.
So fly, so fly, so fly

Now listen
I got a beautiful soul
But only four people know
They told me since I was 10
Beauty did not matter then

Now in my 20’s all that matters
Is sex, cars, and money
I ain’t got none of the three
So basically I am invisible to all of the fellas
And I sit at home jealous
There was no golden ticket
In my chocolate today

And worst of all
I’m reminded in the cruelest ways
Of how I don’t look and I should look
And that’s why I say

(chorus)

So basically all I need
Is to be everything but me
Colored contacts, liposuction
And some… implants
Somehow that don’t make much sense
I must be out of my head
If I think that I am governed by material things

So I decided, I’m
The definition of fly
And if you want to know why
I know what money can’t buy
Don’t go believin’ the hype
There’s no runway in the sky
And no way you could be fly
not if it costs you a dime

(chorus)
