Well I heard about the names that the boys been calling you,
And how the girls are spitting words and rumors that they know ain't true.
Is that true?
Well I know it's hard to feel like you're on your own,
Cause I remember what it's like being all alone.
But you don't have to be like them.
Yeah you don't have to try to fit in.
You don't have to be a bombshell beauty queen,
Blonde Barbie girl.
Like all those girls you're looking off to.
Cause I like the little miss sunshine,
Sometimes out of line,
Girl don't be nobody but you.
You just got to use whatever you got.
Never try to be somebody you're not.
Principal Nelson in middle school, I was like his bad step son.
In his office everyday cause I stuck out like a sore thumb.
He said it's better just to be a chameleon,
Somewhere in the middle with everyone.
I'm so glad I didn't listen to him.
I'm so glad I never cared to fit in.
Cause you don't have to be a bombshell beauty queen,
Blonde Barbie girl.
Like all those girls you're looking off to.
Cause I like the little miss sunshine,
Sometimes out of line,
Girl don't be nobody but you.
You just got to use whatever you got.
Never try to be somebody you're not.
People gonna wonder, gonna wonder how'd you turn out like that?
And people won't get you, so they might start talking trash.
People gonna wonder, gonna wonder how'd you turn out like that?
So people won't get you,
But it won't last.
You don't have to be a bombshell beauty queen,
Blonde Barbie girl,
Like all those girls you're looking off to.
Cause I like the little miss sunshine,
Sometimes out of line,
Girl don't be nobody but you.
You just got to use whatever you got.
Never try to be somebody you're not.
