Not Your Barbie Girl Lyrics

Not your barbie girl, I'm livin' in my own world
I ain't plastic, call me classic
You can't touch me there, you can't touch my body
Unless I say so, ain't your barbie, no
Pull up to that dream house, god gate heels down
How much do you like...

    This song is meant to be a friendlier remake of Aqua's 1997 "Barbie Girl," but with Ava's own unique twist. In Aqua's song, there were many themes that marginalized women and painted them as objects. In Ava Max's "Not Your Barbie Girl" though, there are instead themes of how she is an independent woman, how people can only touch her if she allows them, etc... These themes are a lot less marginalizing and much more empowering, and they align with Ava Max's own views on equality between the genders and female empowerment. The song is also interesting because it makes a point to say the exact opposite of the objectifying lyrics from "Barbie Girl" in the first few verses. Overall, the purpose of this song is really to provide a more empowering version (with great beats) of the popular, but marginalizing song "Barbie Girl."

    It’s basically saying that women are not dolls to be played with and controlled by men and that we don’t allow people to touch us without permission

    it is talking about being in control of your body and being able to say no when men pressure you and you don't want that. It has a good message and it is appropriate for children

    She’s basically saying, because she’s a celebrity that she won’t let you control her
