No Doubt — Beauty Contest

[Verse 1] Damsel in distress is quite submissive Look how sun burnt my vanity is Effeminate human creature Superficial, seducing detour I'm going to the mall for the cookie-cutter The ugly duckling will always suffer Contaminated standards, don't try to fight it I better get back on my diet [Chorus] Obsessed with the beauty contest Beauty contest How'd my vanity get such a mess? Beauty contest I'm obsessed [Verse 2] Reduce myself, I've got the strict restrictions Not sexy enough without the regulations Molten point countdown my fading features Born to blossom and bloom to perish [Chorus] Obsessed with the beauty contest Beauty contest I've got to get out of this mess Beauty contest I'm obsessed [Verse 3] And I've fallen, I can't help myself I'm feeling envious of all the rest You're bringing out the lemming in me A victim of the cattle-call disease Not easy to be me I feel swollen [Chorus] Obsessed with the beauty contest Beauty contest How'd my vanity get such a mess? Obsessed with the beauty contest Obsessed with the beauty contest Beauty contest I've got to get out of this mess Obsessed with the beauty contest Obsessed with the beauty contest Beauty contest How'd my vanity get such a mess? Caught up in the beauty contest [x5] [Outro] And I feel swollen How'd my vanity get such a mess? [Gwen's niece, Madeline] My vanity's a mess
