Dust the gold off you fingers, mate.

Media, Media

Mirror,mirror, on the wall
who really is fairest of them all?
because according to US magazine, Instyle, Vogue, and Seventeen
it's no one in real life I've seen

painted cheekbones, inflated lips
ever so slightly photo shopped hips
a nip right there, a tuck right here
silicon to the rescue, have no fear!

and in this land where everthing's shiny
the hair is straight and waists are tiny
nails are polished, lips are glossed
both behinds and teeth are religiously flossed

I gussy, I primp, I powder, I contort
though convincingly synthetic, I still fall short
this mission is over, it's time to abort
this artificial beauty isn't worth the effort
