I ain't no dumb blonde
I ain't no stupid Barbie doll
I got my game on
Watch me, watch me, watch me prove you wrong

Well, there you go again tellin' me where I belong
You put me on the bench, don't think that I can play strong
So quick to condescend, well, you think I'm empty, I'm not
You won't be so confident when I'm crushin' you from the top (Oh)

I'm a babe, I'm a boss and I'm makin' this money (Uh-huh)
I can flip like a switch and I cut like a blade (Try to get it now)
I can sting like a bee, but I'm sweeter than honey (Uh-huh)
And I'm quick as a whip so get outta my way (Come and get it now)

I ain't no dumb blonde
I ain't no stupid Barbie doll
I got my game on (Just watch me)
Watch me, watch me, watch me prove you wrong
I ain't no dumb blonde (Nuh-uh)
I am a freaking cherry bomb (That's right)
I'll be your icon
Watch me, watch me, watch me prove you wrong

Stand up everybody
Get up, say it loud
We're bombshells raisin' hell now
Watch me, watch me, watch me prove you wrong
Stand up everybody
Get up, say it loud
We're bombshells raisin' hell now
Watch me, watch me, watch me prove you wrong

Well, there you go again, you're talkin' down on me (Huh)
I may look innocent, don't underestimate me (Uh-uh)
I'm gold, I'm platinum, don't you know I'm outta your league? (I'm so outta your league)
Step back, your time is up, sit down, I'm takin' the lead (Oh)

I'm a babe, I'm a boss and I'm makin' this money (Uh-huh)
I can flip like a switch and I cut like a blade (Try to get it now)
I can sting like a bee, but I'm sweeter than honey (Uh-huh)
And I'm quick as a whip so get outta my way (Come and get it now)

I ain't no dumb blonde
I ain't no stupid Barbie doll
I got my game on (Just watch me)
Watch me, watch me, watch me prove you wrong
I ain't no dumb blonde (Nuh-uh)
I am a freaking cherry bomb (That's right)
I'll be your icon
Watch me, watch me, watch me prove you wrong

Stand up everybody
Get up, say it loud
We're bombshells raisin' hell now
Watch me, watch me, watch me prove you wrong
Stand up everybody
Get up, say it loud
We're bombshells raisin' hell now
Watch me, watch me, watch me prove you wrong

Yo, I ain't playin', but I won the cup
Came through heavy on it in the Bentley truck (Uh-huh)
It was me, young Avril, security tucked (Okay)
In the back just in case one of y'all run up (Rrr)
One of y'all, um, um, all of y'all be stuck (Uh-huh)
When you see a young queen in the flesh, what's up? (What up?)
All the hatin' you was doin' got the Barbie poppin'
Now all of 'em wanna be a Barbie, I'm watchin'
But you never gon' stop me, never gon' top me
Millions on millions, they never gon' dock me (What else?)
I am the prototype, the pinkprint (Uh-huh)
And no, I don't want no frauds, wink, wink

(Oh, no)
I ain't no dumb blonde
I ain't no stupid Barbie doll (Hell no)
I got my game on
Watch me, watch me, watch me prove you wrong
I ain't no dumb blonde (Nuh-uh)
I am a freaking cherry bomb (That's right)
I'll be your icon (Just watch me)
Watch me, watch me, watch me prove you wrong

Stand up everybody (Stand up)
Get up, say it loud (Get loud)
We're bombshells raisin' hell now
Watch me, watch me, watch me prove you wrong
Stand up everybody (Come on)
Get up, say it loud (Let's go)
We're bombshells raisin' hell now
Watch me, watch me, watch me prove you wrong
