“Maybe if I act like that, that guy will call me back.
What a Paparazzi girl, I don't wanna be a stupid girl.

Push up my bra like that. I don't wanna be a stupid girl.”

“If she walks by, the men folks get engrossed,
She can't help it, the girl can't help it,
If she winks an eye, the bread slice turn to toast,
She can't help it, the girl can't help it,
If she got a lot, of what they call the most,
She can't help it, the girl can't help it.”
