Lyrics
You don’t pay attention to your hair
You’re a bad Barbie
You don’t give a thought about those clothes you wear
You’re a bad Barbie
You don’t spend hours putting makeup on
You blow a kiss in the mirror and then you’re gone
You’re a bad Barbie
A bad, bad Barbie
and I think we’re gonna be friends
You do what you want and take care of yourself
You’re a bad Barbie
You stopped cleaning up after anyone else
You’re a bad Barbie
You traded high heels for boots on the ground
You say the war on women’s coming back around
You’re a bad Barbie
A bad, bad Barbie
And I think we’re gonna be friends
They want us to shut up, look pretty and listen
Barefoot and pregnant and stuck in the kitchen
Over-reliant compliant in prison - Like a good Barbie
Instrumental Break
You remember how women used to have rights
You’re a bad Barbie
Now you’re wide awake and up for a fight
You’re a bad Barbie
You said don’t get comfortable; don’t relax
Those insecure man-babies keep coming back
You’re a bad Barbie
A bad, bad Barbie
And I think we’re gonna be friends
They want us to shut up, look pretty and listen
Barefoot and pregnant and stuck in the kitchen
Over reliant compliant in prison - Like a good Barbie
Instrumental Break
Don’t get comfortable; don’t relax
Those insecure man-babies keep coming back
You’re a bad Barbie
A bad, bad Barbie
