[Verse 1] 
Em7Sometimes I shave Bm7my legs and sAm7ometimes I don’t
Bm7 Em7
Sometimes I comb Bm7my hair and sometimAm7es I won’t
Bm7  Em7
Depend of how the wind blows I Bm7might even paAm7int my toes
Bm7 Em7
It really just depeBm7nds on whatever feelAm7s good in my soul
Bm7 Em7
[Chorus]
I’m not the average girl from Bm7your videoAm7  
And I ain’t built Bm7like a superEm7model
But I learned to love myself uncondBm7itionally,Am7  
Because I am a queeBm7nEm7  
I not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
No matter what I’m wearing I will always be
[Verse 2]
When I look in the mirror and the only one there is me
Every freckle on my face is where it’s suppose to be
And I know my creator didn’t make no mistakes on me
My feet, my thighs, my Lips, my eyes, I’m loving what I see
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Am I less of a lady if Bm7I don’t wherCmaj7e panty hose
Em7My momma said a lady ain’Bm7t what she weCmaj7ars but what she knows…
But I’ve drawn the conclusioG/Bn, it’s all an illusAm7ionG  
ConfusAm7ion’s the name of the game
A misCmaj7conceptG/Bion, a vast Am7deceptioGn,
 Fmaj7(#11)
Something got to change
Now don’t be offended this is all my opinion
Ain’t nothing that I’m saying law
This is a true confession 
Of a life learned lesson 
I was sent here to share with y'all
So get in when you fit in
Go on and shine
Clear your mind 
Now’s the time
Put your salt on the shelf
Go on and love yourself
‘Cause everything’s gonna be alright
[Chorus]
Out
Keep your fancy drink, and your expensive minks
I don’t need that to have a good time
Keep your expensive cars and your caviar
All’s I need is my guitar
Keep your crystal and your pistol
I’d rather have a pretty piece of crystal
Don’t need you silicone, I prefer my own
What god gave me is just fine…
[Chorus]
