Song Lyrics

The green-eyed monster's got me once again
And she's holding me back from having any fun
I just wanna look like the other girls
With the skinny little hips and the rock and roll shirts

You're looking over here, you're looking right through me
To a pretty little thing that you'd rather see
I find myself staring in my girlish envy
I'm punishing myself
Stomping my own vanity

It's a vicious cycle
Finding fault with every move
Picking myself apart
What is it I lack
What do I have to prove

I'm a jealous girl just trying to please the world
And I can't stop staring 'cause I'm a jealous girl

Why do we compete with each and every one
Try to steal each other's boy
Our smiles become weapons
And me, the wallflower, feeling out of place
Feeling like I don't belong with the skinny girl race

It's a vicious cycle
Finding fault with every move
Picking myself apart
What is it I lack
What do I have to prove

I'm a jealous girl just trying to please the world
And I can't stop staring 'cause I'm a jealous girl

I'm gonna put my new red lipstick on
I'm gonna show you how hot I could be
I'm gonna make you want me

I'm a jealous girl just trying to please the world
And I can't stop staring 'cause I'm a jealous girl

I'm gonna put my new red lipstick on
I'm gonna show you how hot I could be
I'm gonna make you want me
