[Janelle Monáe, Kelly Clarkson - All Dolled Up lyrics]
First, we'll pluck a little here
Then, we’ll tuck a little there
Then, we'll cut a little loose
And apply a little mousse
To what seems to be your hair
Then, we'll do a little tweeze
Then, we’ll do a little more
Then, we'll wax, and then, we'll bleach
'Til you're smoother than a peach
Or at least a little smoother
Than you were before
To me, you look okay
But, if you truly want me to
We'll sculpt and mold
And change and fix you anyway
Hey (Hey) , we're getting all dolled up
Going with the flow, looking so appealing
Hey (Hey) , 'cause when you’re all dolled up
No one has to know just
How flawed you’re feeling
Hey, if you can hide what's shining through
You’ll see a whole new you
So we'll try a little mask
It'll open up your pores
Then we'll rub some lotion in
Then we’ll soften up your skin
So it doesn't look like yours
Then we'll moisten up your lips (yeah, yeah)
Buff your toenails to a T (yeah, yeah)
And we'll powder up your nose
Or in your case, I suppose
We'll just put a little powder
Where your nose should be
Hey (Hey) , we're getting all dolled up
Blend in with the crowd like
We know we've got to
Hey (Hey) , 'cause when you're all dolled up
That's when you're allowed to
Pretend you're not you
Hey, once you conceal what's real and true
You'll see a whole new you
Everyone, choose your weapons!
Step one, find the trendiest of outfit's
Step two, pick the one that just about fit's
Step three, this is absolutely key
Choose it not for you
But for who you wanna be and then
Once you know which look you're into
Say when, and I guess we can begin to squeeze
And stretch and stuff until we
Nail the whole display
Hey (Hey) , we're getting all dolled up
Feeling fresh and free, looking oh, so juice
Hey (Hey) , 'cause when you're all dolled up
People only see what you want them to see
Hey, once who you are is hidden from view
You'll be a whole new you
You'll be a whole new you
You'll be a whole new you
Yeah, we're getting all dolled up
Gosh, though how I wish that I didn't need to
Sure, look at me, all dolled up
Stuck playing a part someone else agreed to
Ooh, if I could choose who I could be
I'd choose a whole new me
I'd choose a whole new me
I'd choose a whole new me
Then, we’ll tuck a little there
Then, we'll cut a little loose
And apply a little mousse
To what seems to be your hair
Then, we'll do a little tweeze
Then, we’ll do a little more
Then, we'll wax, and then, we'll bleach
'Til you're smoother than a peach
Or at least a little smoother
Than you were before
To me, you look okay
But, if you truly want me to
We'll sculpt and mold
And change and fix you anyway
