Paint

Am I hiding, or is this just me?
Am I not allowed to be who I want to be?
It makes me feel better, 'cause pretty I aint!
What's wrong with a little bit of paint?
Am I being looked down upon again?
'Cause I'm wearing this lipstick in shade number ten
You look like a panda with that black around your eyes
Oh you're completely right
T's all part of my disguise
You wouldn't put down a boy with scars
From an operation that he had in the past
He wears baggy jumpers to cover them up
He's not too happy in his skin
Just like us!
Am I hiding, or is this just me?
Am I not allowed to be who I want to be?
It makes me feel better, 'cause pretty I aint!
What's wrong with a little bit of paint?
I can't draw a thing but you could call this art
Applying blusher doesn't make me a tart
Don't call her an orange 'cause I think that's unkind
If you don't like lady gaga that's your problem not mine!
And I'm not saying every face is a canvas
I'm just saying if you're feeling anxious
You should be able to wear whatever you choose
And if you think that I'm wrong, well
I refuse
Am I hiding, or is this just me?
Am I not allowed to be who I want to be?
It makes me feel better, 'cause pretty I aint!
What's wrong with a little bit of paint?
There's nothing wrong with a little bit of paint
There’s nothing wrong
Am I hiding, or is this just me?
Am I not allowed to be who I want to be?
It makes me feel better, 'cause pretty I aint!
What's wrong with a little bit of paint?
Am I hiding, or is this just me?
Am I not allowed to be who I want to be?
It makes me feel better, 'cause pretty I aint!
What’s wrong with a little bit
What’s wrong with a little bit
What's wrong with a little bit of paint?
