everybody’s tellin’ me what to do
just be you they say just be you
everybody’s tryin’ to crack the case
start to finish in the glamor race
oh yeah
tell me why I gotta look so good
tell me why I gotta sigh just right
tell me why I gotta fake this bake
i just won’t
tell me why I gotta curl my hair
tell me why I gotta stick this lip
tell me why I gotta line this eye
i just won’t
everybody’s tellin me what to do
everybody’s givin’ me advice
everbody’s telling me to be nice, be nice
i don’t gotta a lot of things to say
I just gotta do what I feel each day
hey, hey, hey
so tell me why I gotta hear this ad
tell me why I gotta not feel bad
tell me why i gotta get you glad
i just won’t
tell me why I gotta join your cause
tell me why I gotta smile at Oz
tell me why I gotta grease your paws
i just won’t
bring on the glam, lights on the stand,
c’mon girlfriend
the camera is on
you know you can’t be wrong
step to the right, turn to the left,
girlfriend
cuz you’re shining
you’re shining
you’re shining till the makeup’s gone
everybody’s tellin’ me what to do
just be you they say just be you
everybody’s tryin’ to crack the case
start to finish in the glamor race
oh yeah
I have a big smile on my face. Great song. Love you!
I love it! You are flowing creativity!
Allison,
You probably don’t remember me, it’s been ages. We were in the Clark ward together for awhile, way back when. Your gifts astound me! I’ve just thoroughly enjoyed listening to a handful of your songs. My feelings echo the sentiments of this one in particular. I hope you’re well and hope you’ll make a CD some day. Or maybe you have already?
