Glossy Finish

[Intro]
[Verse]
Valet the matte black in the lot
Yeah the girl you forgot is the girl that you’re not
Remember the zines with the staples and glue?
Now my invoice is higher than your annual revenue
I was cutting and pasting while you were just hating
Now look at the brand that I’m currently creating
You’re stuck in the gym in a polyester dress
While I’m a high-res, vector-based success
[Pre-Chorus]
Look at the kerning on your face
I’m taking up all of the space
A masterpiece you can’t erase
Setting the pace at my own base
[Chorus]
I’m living in CMYK
Brightening up a rainy day
You stayed the same, I flew away
Everything’s coming up gold today
Yeah I’m the main character now
Take a look and take a bow
I’m the queen of the layout
That’s what I’m talking about
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, look at the glow up
Ooh, watch how I show up
Ooh, watch the price go up
Yeah, the zine girl grew up
[Verse]
Oh hey Becky, still in the same town?
Still wearing that same hand-me-down frown?
You called my sketches a waste of a life
Now I’m the boss, not a trophy or wife
I’m a vector, I never lose quality
You’re just a raster, a low-res anomaly
Pixelated and faded out
That’s what the zine was always about
I used to hide in the back of the class
Now I’m the one with the VIP pass
[Pre-Chorus]
Look at the kerning on your face
I’m taking up all of the space
A masterpiece you can’t erase
Setting the pace at my own base
[Chorus]
I’m living in CMYK
Brightening up a rainy day
You stayed the same, I flew away
Everything’s coming up gold today
Yeah I’m the main character now
Take a look and take a bow
I’m the queen of the layout
That’s what I’m talking about
[Bridge]
Staple it, fold it, print it
I saw the dream and I went and I get it
No permission, no gatekeeper
My vision just keeps getting deeper
From the Xerox to the billboard
This is the life I can afford
[Hook]
Zine girl, dream girl
Spinning in a high-res world
Zine girl, dream girl
Watch the banner unfold
[Chorus]
I’m living in CMYK
Brightening up a rainy day
You stayed the same, I flew away
Everything’s coming up gold today
Yeah I’m the main character now
Take a look and take a bow
I’m the queen of the layout
That’s what I’m talking about
[Outro]
