[Intro: Lene Nystrøm, René Dif]
Hiya, Barbie
Hi, Ken
You wanna go for a ride?
Sure, Ken
Jump in
[Chorus: Lene Nystrøm, René Dif]
I'm a Barbie girl in the Barbie world
Life in plastic, it's fantastic
You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere
Imagination, life is your creation
Come on, Barbie, let's go party
I'm a Barbie girl in the Barbie world
Life in plastic, it's fantastic
You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere
Imagination, life is your creation
[Verse 1: Lene Nystrøm, René Dif]
I'm a blonde bimbo girl in a fantasy world
Dress me up, make it tight, I'm your dolly
You're my doll, rock and roll, feel the glamor in pink

You can touch, you can play
If you say I'm always yours, ooh woah

I'm a Barbie girl in the Barbie world
Life in plastic, it's fantastic
You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere
Imagination, life is your creation
[Post-Chorus: René Dif, Lene Nystrøm]
Come on, Barbie, let's go party
Ah, ah, ah, yeah
Come on, Barbie, let's go party
Ooh woah, ooh woah
Come on, Barbie, let's go party
Ah, ah, ah, yeah
Come on, Barbie, let's go party
Ooh woah, ooh woah
[Verse 2: Lene Nystrøm, René Dif]
Make me walk, make me talk, do whatever you please
I can act like a star, I can beg on my knees
Come jump in, bimbo friend, let us do it again
Hit the town, fool around, let's go party
[Refrain: Lene Nystrøm]
You can touch, you can play
If you say I'm always yours
You can touch, you can play
If you say I'm always yours
[Bridge: René Dif, Lene Nystrøm]
Come on, Barbie, let's go party
Ah, ah, ah, yeah
Come on, Barbie, let's go party
Ooh woah, ooh woah
Come on, Barbie, let's go party
Ah, ah, ah, yeah
Come on, Barbie, let's go party
Ooh woah, ooh woah
[Chorus: Lene Nystrøm]
I'm a Barbie girl in the Barbie world
Life in plastic, it's fantastic
You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere
Imagination, life is your creation
I'm a Barbie girl in the Barbie world
Life in plastic, it's fantastic
You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere
Imagination, life is your creation
[Post-Chorus: René Dif, Lene Nystrøm]
Come on, Barbie, let's go party
Ah, ah, ah, yeah
Come on, Barbie, let's go party
Ooh woah, ooh woah
Come on, Barbie, let's go party
Ah, ah, ah, yeah
Come on, Barbie, let's go party
Ooh woah, ooh woah

Well, Barbie, we're just getting started
Oh, I love you Ken
