I'm gonna skin you alive, and make a   suit out of your hide   And then I'll go downtown and   I'll make believe I'm you   I'm gonna put your favorite dress on,   I'm gonna put on your perfume   I'm gonna go out and find out   what it's like to be you.   I'm gonna flirt with all the boys,   I'm gonna be so fucking coy   And they won't know inside it's me - it isn't you   And while I'm being you, you'll get your   taste of being me   All alone and crying, dying with no one   around to see   I won't be there to help you this time, now you'll   learn your lesson   I'll be out with your red dress on , giving it   away for free   I'm gonna be a brand new girl, I'm gonna own this   whole damn world   At every party I will be the queen   I'm gonna find out what's so great about   everything I hate   From now on I'm you and there is no more me   It didn't have to come to this, but I guess   life is full of twists   And love is just one breath away from hate   We could have been the biggest thing since they   crowned the Presley boy the king   But now it's time for me to end this stalemate.
