you don't, you don't have to keep up, keep up
you've been trying to be one of the boys, trying to be one of the boys
you know, you know I can't keep up with you
because I've never been one of the boys, I've never been one of the boys
we don't need a lot of things
but gothic cliques and diamond rings
spend my money for the world to see
on this happy anniversary
I can't, I can't stay glam I tried my hand at feeling better in my clothes
but I've never been one of the girls, I've never been one of the girls
my voice, my voice, mixed with a little bit of timing and my choice, oh you know I wish I was one of the girls
god I wish I was one of the girls
we don't need a lot of things
but gothic cliques and diamond rings
spend my money for the world to see
on this happy anniversary
we don't need a lot of things
but gothic cliques and diamond rings
spend my money for the world to see
on this happy anniversary
stand your ground 'cause the heartbreak's coming
in a cruel world you've got to make your own loving
cool, keep it cool, baby keep on stunting
all these kim's with fake diamonds try to kick you off the runway
we don't need a lot of things
but gothic cliques and diamond rings
spend my money for the world to see
on this happy anniversary
you know, you know, I can't keep up with you
because I've never been one of the boys
I've never been one of the boys
