Yeah… I love you, Grace… but wow. (What is happening down here?) Boots on the stairs, sparkle in the air— Okay… we’re doing this. [Verse 1] I step downstairs, it’s a whole boutique Tiny heels and crowns where my feet wanna be Big Barbie house like a mansion on a hill Every room got vibes, yeah it’s fully furnished for real Robyn on the balcony, Susanna in the suite Sarah in the kitchen making “plastic” something to eat Leroy in the sports car, acting way too cool And Boadicia’s got the horse like she runs the whole school [Pre-Chorus] And I’m trying not to trip, trying not to yell But the jet ski’s on the couch and the boat’s by the rail I take one deep breath, then I say it again… (you know) [Chorus] Grace clean up your Barbie stuff right now Grace clean up your Barbie stuff right now ’Cause I’m stepping on a heel when I walk down Sports car by the stairs and the boat on the couch Grace clean up your Barbie stuff right now Robyn, Leroy—everybody’s spread out Boadicia with the horse, Susanna in the house Sarah in the closet—clothes all over the ground [Verse 2] Drawers and drawers of outfits, like a superstar tour Change a look every minute, then you want ten more Living room runway, bedroom closet spree Tiny hangers on the floor like a mini department store, see There’s a boat, there’s a jet ski, there’s a horse by the lamp Sports car in the hallway like it parked in the wrong camp And your Barbie house got rooms I didn’t know existed I swear there’s like twelve bathrooms—how is that even realistic? [Pre-Chorus 2] I’m trying to be patient, I’m trying to be nice But a heel in my sock is a personal vice I point to the mess, then I point to the bin— (and I say) [Chorus] Grace, clean up your Barbie stuff (hey!) It’s a fashion show explosion and it’s way too much Shoes on the stairs and the clothes in piles Barbie world took over my whole house now Grace, clean up your Barbie stuff (come on!) I’m stepping on a crown and I’m losing my trust But you just smile like, “Daddy, it’s fine…” Messy Barbies everywhere, every time [Bridge — breakdown, half-time groove, more heartfelt] Okay… okay… I can’t even front One day I’ll miss this—yeah, I know I will One day I’ll miss this—yeah, I know I will The little plastic life, the rooms you built The way you make a whole story just sitting still So I’ll help you pack it up, we’ll do it as a team But I’m still gonna say it, you know what I mean… [Final Chorus — bigger, stacked vocals] Grace, clean up your Barbie stuff (hey!) Let’s get the house back before we run out of luck Robyn, Leroy, Boadicia too— Susanna, Sarah—everybody move! Grace, clean up your Barbie stuff (come on!) Put the clothes in the drawers, make it neat enough Then tomorrow we do it all again (that’s fine) Messy Barbies everywhere—good times [Outro — playful tag] Grace… (clean up your Barbie stuff) Grace… (clean up your Barbie stuff) Yeah… I love you, kid… but I’m watching my step.
