Tell Yourself

I know what you tell yourself, you tell yourself

Look in the mirror, look in the mirror

What does it show

I hear you counting

I know you're adding up the score

I konw, oh yes, I know what you tell yourself

You tell yourself

Ever since Eden

We're built for pleasing

Everyone knows

And ever since Adam crack his ribs

and let us go

I know, oh yes I know

What you tell yourself

You tell yourself

Well I know, I know that wrongs been done to you

"It's such a tough world"

That's what you say

Well I know, I know it's easier said than done

But that's enough girl

Give it away, give it

Give it all away

Tell yourself that you're not pretty

Look at you, you're beautiful

Tell yourself that no one see Plain Jane

Invisible me, just tell yourself

Tell yourself you'll never be

Like the anorexic beauties in the magazines

Just a bargain basement Barbie Doll

No belle du jour

No femme fatale

just tell yourself

Tell yourself there's nothing worse

Than the pain inside and the way it hurts

But tell yourself it's nothing new

'Cause everybody feels it too

They feel it too

And there's just no getting 'round the fact

that you're thirteen right now
