lyrics

He’s too skinny, She’s too fat
Look at the losers, Looking like that
That’s too small, That’s too big
You can’t win, The game is rigged

Everyone says that looks don’t matter
But we insult each other when we start getting fatter
Throwing other people’s feelings under the bus
Just in case they try to do it to us

BRIDGE

Nobody’s perfect and neither are you
We could change it right now and we know what to do
But we’re too afraid of what the neighbors will think
To break the chain and rewrite the link

CHORUS

We hate ourselves, That’s a fact
Don’t know what we’re missing, But we want it back
Can’t live with the fact that we don't look like that
So all we do is hold each other back

VERSE

Selling ourselves and each other short
I’ll see you in hell or I’ll see you in court
Tearing down people less perfect than you
To bump yr own ego up a notch or two

We keep falling for the same old traps
That we set for ourselves and dropped in our own laps
Reinforcing standards we can never attain
Unless yr loaded, lucky or have no shame

BRIDGE

Nobody’s perfect and neither are you
We could change it right now and we know what to do
But we’re too afraid of what the neighbors will think
To break the chain and rewrite the link

CHORUS

We hate ourselves, That’s a fact
Don’t know what we’re missing, But we want it back
Can’t live with the fact that we don't look like that
So all we do is hold each other back

VERSE

Too skinny too fat too bad
It could have been the best thing you ever had
We've lost the plot, we’re off the rails
We’ve bottled our vanity and put it on sale

Would you rather be lonely than settle for less
When less is really more – but I digress
Beauty sex and love is right where you find it
Conformity’s the barrier, don’t hide behind it

BRIDGE

Nobody’s perfect and neither are you
We could change it right now and we know what to do
But we’re too afraid of what the neighbors will think
To break the chain and rewrite the link

CHORUS

We hate ourselves, That’s a fact
Don’t know what we’re missing, But we want it back
Can’t live with the fact that we don't look like that
So all we do is hold each other back
