Lyrics

[Chorus 1] Looking at himself but wishing he was someone else Because the posters on the wall, they don't look like him at all So he ties it up, he tucks it in, he pulls it back, and gives a grin Laughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at all [Verse 1] He gets his courage from the can It makes him feel like a man Because he's loving all the ladies But the ladies don't love him at all Because when he's not drunk He's only stuck on himself And then he has the nerve To say he needs a decent girl [Chorus 2] Looking at herself but wishing she was someone else Because the body of the doll don't look like hers at all So she straps it up, she sets it in, she throws it up, it gets a grin Laughing at herself because she knows she ain't born at all [Verse 2] All caught up in the trends Well the truth began to bend And the next thing you know man There's just no truth left at all Because when the pretty girl walks She walks so proud And when the pretty girl laughs Oh man, she laughs so loud And if it ain't this, then it's that As a matter of fact She hasn't had a day to relax Since she has lost her ability to think clearly [Bridge] Well I'm an energetic, hypothetic version of another person Check out my outsides, there ain't nothing in here Well I'm a superficial, systematic, music television addict Check out my outsides, there ain't nothing in here [Outro] Looking at himself but wishing he was someone else Because the posters on the wall, they don't look like him So he ties it up, he tucks it in, he pulls it back, and gives a grin Laughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at all Knows he ain't loved at all
