Mika - Platform Ballerinas lyrics

[Mika - Platform Ballerinas lyrics]

Dancing in her platform ballerinas
That's about as girly as she gets
She ain't like no other señorita
And she will never let you forget

She says, "Don't believe everything you see
That a girl wakes up with makeup
And her heart on her sleeve"
She says, "Better be yourself, you'll make it
'Cause every other girl out there is taken"

She says, "So come on"
Dancing like she loves it with
Her best dress on
Spinning, jumping, messing up her hair
But it doesn't matter
'Cause that don't make her less of a girl
And her hips she moves
Grooving to the music like a woman do
Throws her body in it not for me, not you
But for her
And that don't make her less of a girl

Dancing in her platform ballerinas
Like she's dancing in her kitchen at home
She says life is made up of decisions
But that every one of them must be her own

"Don't believe everything you see
That a girl wakes up with makeup
And her heart on her sleeve"
She says, "Better be yourself, you'll make it
'Cause every other girl out there is taken"

She says, "So come on"
Dancing like she loves it with
Her best dress on
Spinning, jumping, messing up her hair
But it doesn't matter
'Cause that don't make her less of a girl
And her hips she moves
Grooving to the music like a woman do
Throws her body in it not for me, not you
But for her
And that don't make her less of a girl

When that song comes on
She don't know the words
But she still sings along
Everybody's laughing
But it doesn't even matter
'Cause that don't make her less of a girl
She don't have to aim to miss
Blowing up her lips to make them best to kiss
That won't even help to get a
Guy to kiss her better
And that don't make her less of a girl

She says, "So come on"
Dancing like she loves it with
Her best dress on
Spinning, jumping, messing up her hair
But it doesn't matter
'Cause that don't make her less of a girl
