The losing game

1992 cosyng music/BMI

I was raised with the tv on
on the young long lean and blonde
beauty queens with high heels
you've come a long way baby
how does it feel
are you proud to be living in the USA
nothing beats a great pair of legs
Be all you can be don't be more than an 8
stretch yourself out
you're not the right shape

Chorus:
You're a little bit bigger
you could be smaller
you could be thinner
if you could get taller
just a little less
make you a little more
give you that little look
you're looking for
if you go out
where they say go in
it's a losing game
you don't want to win

Little girls counting calories
want to look like the ladies they see on tv
you never know what your nature intended
your natural shape has been suspended
by diet soda and Dexatrim
makes your hair fall out
but at least you're thin
what ever happened to a feminine line
came between you
And your Calvin Klein's (Chorus)

So say goodbye to the hourglass shape
full-figure girls you're all out of shape
I have learned not to care
what the pictures say
I was born with this body it won't go away
I don't need a diet I would need a machine
to look like the women in those magazines
no one ever called me skin and bones
I'm not a frame
I'm a finished home (Chorus)
