Default What a way to wanna be

Just thought these lyrics were kind of....true really. I'm having a bit of a bad day.

What A Way To Wanna Be! lyrics
Shania Twain
I don't wanna wear that
It only makes me look fat
Time to tone my thighs - gotta lose another size, yeah!
What a way to wanna be

Exfoliate - look great!
Feel guilty 'bout what you ate
You're buyin' all the books
to learn the latest looks, yeah
What a way to wanna be

We like to buy, we like to spend,
to keep up with the latest trend
But we don't get no satisfaction
living like a slave to fashion
No more thinking for yourself,
just get it off a shelf

[chorus:]
Oh-oh, why be perfect - no-oh,
it's not worth it
Don't be so obsessed - c'mon give it a rest
This is not some contest - just do your best
'Cause no-oh body's perfect!
What a way to wanna be

Moisturize, exercise, erase the
rings around your eyes
Cover what you can,
get a Coppertone tan, yeah
What a way to wanna be!

Stabilize the mood you're in
you're back on diet food again
Bigger is the best, but only
in the chest, yeah!
What a way to wanna be

We like to buy, we like to spend,
to keep up with the latest trend
But we don't get no satisfaction
living like a slave to fashion
No more thinking for yourself,
just get it off a shelf

[repeat chorus]

It's so very - unnecessary
Yeah, how insane - to be so vain
It's so synthetic - I just don't get it
I don't get it, baby, yeah, yeah

Don't be so obsessed - c'mon give it a rest
This is not some contest - just do your best
'Cause no-oh body's perfect!

(Ooooohhhhhh)

Oh, no-oh body's perfect
No-oh, it's not worth it
Don't be so obsessed
(No-oh body's perfect)
This is not some contest
(No-oh body's perfect)
Perfect! What a way to wanna be

I love Shania Twain!!! UP! is one of my favorite albums. I have it in my car right now!! I listen to it when I'm on my treadmill too. It's weird that this song happened to be on threre . . .

I've never heard that song because I don't usually listen to country music, but I printed that bad boy out and posted it on my mirror....it should be issued in the mail to all women

That's easy for Shania Twain to say! LOL! But, I still agree with it in principle.
