I feel oh so glamorous, looking super fabulous
And sometimes I'm insecure, something I can't ignore
All the flashing cameras, try my best to handle it
I'm just a girl next door, I can hear the rumors take off

All the girls in the club got their eyes on me
I can tell by the look that they wanna be
Be hot, hot, hot like that
But it's not, not, no, it's not like that

All the girls in the club got their eyes on me
They put me down 'cause of jealousy
But I'm not, not, I'm not that girl
And it's not, not, no, it's not my world

So many girls be checking my style
Checking my style, checking my style
So many girls be checking my style
But I don't even care, no

I move in mysterious ways that got them curious
They're looking at what I'm wearing
Standing on the sidelines staring
Taking every chance they get to find who I'm going with
And I just wish they'd see what I'm like in real life

All the girls in the club got their eyes on me
I can tell by the look that they wanna be
Be hot, hot, hot like that
But it's not, not, no, it's not like that

All the girls in the club got their eyes on me
They put me down 'cause of jealousy
But I'm not, not, I'm not that girl
And it's not, not, no, it's not my world

So many girls be checking my style
Checking my style, checking my style
So many girls be checking my style
But I don't even care, no

What's good, I'm weak no longer
In life, it's making me stronger
What I like I'ma get that like a quick cat
No, I won't quit that, you heard me

You'll be finding I'm just like you
And I do the same things you do
The type of chick that hits spots in my flip-flops
Listening to hip hop, you feel me?

All the girls in the club got their eyes on me
I can tell by the look that they wanna be
Be hot, hot, hot like that
But it's not, not, no, it's not like that

All the girls in the club got their eyes on me
They put me down 'cause of jealousy
But I'm not, not, I'm not that girl
And it's not, not, no, it's not my world

All the girls in the club got their eyes on me
I can tell by the look that they wanna be
Be hot, hot, hot like that
But it's not, not, no, it's not like that

All the girls in the club got their eyes on me
They put me down 'cause of jealousy
But I'm not, not, I'm not that girl
And it's not, not, no, it's not my world
