Not Ken but Barbie Remix by Kate Gill Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Two little girls
Met each other on the playground
Just like the rest
Didn't stick out from the crowd
But between themselves
They knew that they were different
But they pushed it down
'Cause nobody would even listen
[Pre-Chrous]
Her parents always saying
"Girl when you grow up
You're gonna find a nice man
Make sure you're pretty enough
You'll be living a life like Barbie and Ken
Cmon suck it up and
Forget this nonsеnse."
[Chorus]
But what if it's not Ken, but Barbie?
Why should shе have to say sorry?
Tell me, do you even listen?
To all the dumb shit you're slipping?
We can love who we want to
Don't say she's not supposed to
If she doesn't love Ken, but Barbie
She doesn't have to say sorry
[Bridge]
No, not to you
Not to me
Not to anyone, anyone, anyone
Not to you
Not to me
Not to anyone, anyone, anyone
[Verse2]
17 years old
Feeling like a stranger at home
Keeping her head down low
Hideaway so that nobody will know
Avoiding mom and dad
When they're asking "Who's your boyfriend?"
'Cause lord forbid they see
Her true identity
[Pre-Chorus]
Her parents always saying
"Girl when will you see
You'll be happy I know
It's just a man you need
He'll be such a great Ken
And you'll be his Barbie
Make sure you act like a girl
Its what you're born to be"
[Chorus]
What if its not Ken, but Barbie?
Why should she have to say sorry?
Tell me do you even listen?
To all the dumb shit you're slipping?
We can love who we want to
Don't say she's not supposed to
If it's not Ken, but Barbie
She doesn't have to say sorry
[Bridge]
No, not to you
Not to me
Not to anyone, anyone, anyone
Not to you
Not to me
Not to anyone, anyone, anyo-o-one
No, No
She doesn't have to say sorry
No, No
She's never gonna say sorry
It was never Ken, but Barbie
She never ever has to say sorry
And nobody is gonna listen
To all the dumb shit, you're slipping
We can love who we want to
Don't say she's not supposed
It was never Ken, but Barbie
And she doesn't have to say sorry
To you
Two little girls
Met each other on the playground
Just like the rest
Didn't stick out from the crowd
But between themselves
They knew that they were different
But they pushed it down
'Cause nobody would even listen
[Pre-Chrous]

"Girl when you grow up
You're gonna find a nice man
Make sure you're pretty enough
You'll be living a life like Barbie and Ken
Cmon suck it up and

But what if it's not Ken, but Barbie?
Why should shе have to say sorry?
Tell me, do you even listen?
To all the dumb shit you're slipping?
We can love who we want to
Don't say she's not supposed to
If she doesn't love Ken, but Barbie
She doesn't have to say sorry
[Bridge]
No, not to you
Not to me
Not to anyone, anyone, anyone
Not to you
Not to me
Not to anyone, anyone, anyone
