Oomph! True Beauty Is So Painful Lyrics

How did you get your perfect body?
Where did you get such perfect skin?
How come you're such a perfect hottie?
Not a wrinkle, no double chin.

Grandmother, grandmother, tell me why you're still so young.

True beauty is so painful, my dear
The price we pay is shameful, my dear
Don't you know
The surgeon's cut is like a fountain of youth
I'm living proof
Oh, look at me and tell the truth
'Cause I know you want it too

What's your secret for staying youthful?
What's your secret for staying thin?
Won't you tell me, and please be truthful
Does true beauty come from within?

Grandmother, grandmother, tell me why you're still so young.

True beauty is so painful, my dear
The price we pay is shameful, my dear Don't you know
The surgeon's cut is like a fountain of youth
I'm living proof
Oh, look at me and tell the truth
'Cause I know you want it too

Listen now
This face was born in blood and desperation
So don't look deeper than my skin dear child
This body cost my soul, there's no salvation
So don't look deeper down within

True beauty is so painful, my dear
The price we pay is shameful, my dear
Don't you know
The surgeon's cut is like a fountain of youth
I'm living proof
Oh, look at me and tell the truth

True beauty is so painful

Don't you know
You've got to suffer at the end of the night
Yeah that's price for fortune, fame
Your name in lights
Don't you want it? Tell no lies.
