lyrics

My best friend had a nose job, now
he's not the same anymore
they say that he's more handsome
& he no longer snores
well, I don't care if I'm ugly
I'll make do with what I've been given
but my best friend paid the doctor
to change his way of living

They call it a miracle of science
to take a face apart
& put it back together
using a medical chart
but I call it bloody murder
to rearrange a look
idealize & stylize it
'til it resembles something
out of a book

My best friend is a stranger
that face I do not know
he moves in different circles
with a brand new nose

my best friend had a nose job, now
he's not the same anymore...
