The Real Me

(album: Reality - 2008)

I've been checking you out checking me out
Like the cover of a book
I can tell you like the wrapping
The package, I'm off the hook
Hey, tell me, are you the kinda
Guy that likes to read?
Are you that deep?
Or do the pictures satisfy all your needs?

Be attracted to who I am, what I think
What I say, not what I look like
I want somebody who thinks I'm hot
For what I've got, that's not on the outside {ooh}

When you look at me
Are the curves and the angles all you see?
Would you be hanging around if I wasn't pretty?
Tell me do ya, do ya, do ya see the real me?
Would you want to get with me
If I wasn't so blessed with eye candy?
Or would you let me walk by invisible?
Tell me do ya, do ya, do ya see the real me?

To get beyond the velvet rope
There's a price for admission
Some guys, get inside before
They have to stand outside wishing {wishing}
If I wipe away the lipstick, wash away the paint
Would you wake up wishing I was someone that I am

Be attracted to who I am, what I think
What I say, not what I look like
I want somebody who thinks I'm hot
For what I've got, that's not on the outside {ooh}

When you look at me
Are the curves and the angles all you see?
Would you be hanging around if I wasn't pretty?
Tell me do ya, do ya, do ya see the real me?
Would you want to get with me
If I wasn't so blessed with eye candy?
Or would you let me walk by invisible?
Tell me do ya, do ya, do ya see the real me?

I'm standing here trying to get real with you
Are you listening or just watching my mouth move?
Cause if you only use your eyes to peep
No matter how wide you'll never get by me skin deep

Tell me do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya
{do ya, do ya} Do ya see the real me?
Tell me do ya, do ya, do ya

When you look at me
Are the curves and the angles all you see?
Would you be hanging around if I wasn't pretty?
Tell me do ya, do ya, do ya see the real me?
Would you want to get with me
If I wasn't so blessed with eye candy?
Or would you let me walk by invisible?
Tell me do ya, do ya, do ya see the real me?

When you look at me
Is it my face or my body that you see?
Would you be hanging around if I wasn't pretty?
Tell me do ya, do ya, do ya see the real me?

Cause I'm causing traffic jams
Doesn't make me who I am
Could be fat, I could be thin
And still be beautiful within
Cause I'm causing traffic jams
Doesn't make me who I am
Could be fat, I could be thin
And still be beautiful within
