Some girls wake up golden
Some girls wake up blessed
I wake up with a headache
And a demon on my chest
Some girls smell like roses
Some girls float through rooms
I trip over nothing
And call it perfume
How do they do it?
How do they shine?
How are they holy
By half past nine?

Natural
She makes it look natural
I'm in the mirror
Fighting for my life
Natural
Natural
She makes it look natural
I'm holding my breath
And calling it poise
Calling it fine
I tried to be effortless
Terrible plan
I nearly broke an ankle
And embarrassed a man
I tried to be mysterious
Quiet and sweet
Then overshared my childhood
Before we could eat
God help me
God bless me
God professionally assess me

Natural
She makes it look natural
I'm in the mirror
Fighting for my life
Natural
Natural
She makes it look natural
I'm holding my breath
And calling it poise
Calling it fine
There's girls with clean bedrooms
And vitamins too
Who say things like balance
And mean it, it's true
I've got three old receipts
A lipstick, a bruise
And a half-written message
I'm too proud to use
Maybe I'm not easy
Maybe I'm not light
Maybe I'm a storm
In a dress zipped tight
Maybe I'm not graceful
Maybe I'm not calm
Maybe all my softness
Had to learn to be armed

I don't make it natural
I make it dramatic
Expensive and loud
Natural
Natural
I don't make it natural
But darling, I make it
Somehow, somehow
So let her be golden
Let her be clean
Let her drink water
And sleep like a queen
I'll be the thunder
With gloss on my mouth
A little bit tragic
But working it out
Natural
Natural
No, I'm not natural
I'm trying my best
In a body with history
Natural
Natural
No, I'm not natural
But I am alive
And that's pretty to me
