Lyrics
- Lisa:
- You wanted to see me?
- Edna Krabappel:
- Actually, Lisa, I wanted you to see you. You're our president now. But you look like the First Lady of...Yaaaaaawn.
- Lisa:
- What would you change?
- Teachers:
- Eyes, pearls, smile, hairpoints,
- Dress, voice, shoes, Swatch watch.
- Lisa:
- I may be the new girl,
- But you can't brainwash me.
- Just Osh Kosh B'gosh me
- And then leave me be.
- To fight for kid power
- I must be heard not seen.
- I have to lead wisely
- Not just primp and preen.
- Teachers:
- Nails, dimples, ears, scrunchie,
- Purse, lunchbox, teeth, Milhouse.
- Lisa:
- This beauting-up suits me,
- There's beauty within me.
- So let's Olsen Twin me,
- Give them someone to love.
- This grown-up makeover
- Has made me a super tween.
- For they are my people
- And I am their queen!
- Marge:
- Oh, Lisa, you look so successful, like you're the wife of a businessman.
- Homer:
- I wish I could wear like a businessman. Then I'd have nice things.
