lyrics

SINDY WITH AN S

She bought the new collection, sequins and deception
Shoulda wrapped my gift in something that's not foil
She does her quinoa salad, served with a heartfelt ballad
My platter makes a hungry man recoil

Smaller, cheaper, not a keeper
But she said Sindy don't cry and I don't wanna lie
You're better off without me here
Sindy don't cry I don't wanna lie
Nobody wants to be a wannabe Barbie

The vacancy in her smile but spaces are on my dial
I'm always meant to be the girl next door
Got my original face and Grandma's vintage lace
If only that was what they're looking for

Chain store chic, I'm op-shop bleak
But she said Sindy don't cry and I don't wanna lie
You're better off without me here
Sindy don't cry, I don't wanna lie
Nobody wants to be a wannabe Barbie

Sold all my clothes, there's nothing that I want to keep
If they care I don't know, I still run til I can't breathe
It doesn't seem to make me any blonder

Sindy don't cry, and I don't wanna lie
You're better off without me here
Sindy don't cry, I don't wanna lie
I'm not gonna want to be a wannabe Barbie Barbie
I'll be fine, not gonna cry, I'll just be Sindy
