Oomph! Lyrics
"True Beauty Is So Painful"

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 the fountain of youth?
I'm living proof, now look at me and tell the truth
'Cause I know you wanted 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 the 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 the fountain of youth?
I'm living proof, now look at me and tell the truth
'Cause I know you wanted 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 the fountain of youth?
I'm living proof, now 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 knife?
Yeah, that's the price for fortune, fame, your name in lights
Don't you want eternal life?
