Jill Sobule (born January 16, 1965 in Denver, Colorado) is an American singer-songwriter best known for the 1995 single "I Kissed a Girl", and "Supermodel" from the soundtrack of the 1995 film Clueless. Her folk-inflected compositions alternate between ironic, story-driven character studies and emotive ballads, a duality reminiscent of such 1970s American songwriters as Warren Zevon, Harry Nilsson, Loudon Wainwright III, Harry Chapin, and Randy Newman. Autobiographical elements, including Sobule's Jewish heritage and her adolescent battles with anorexia and depression, frequently occur in Sobule's writing.

I could slip, I could fall
In that mean and awful hall
With the other jealous bitches
And the bitter grumbling men

I could sneer, I could glare say that
life is so unfair 
And the one who made it, made it 
'cause her breasts were really big

[Chorus]
Well I don't want to get bitter
I don't want to turn cruel
I don't want to get old before I have to

I could bitch, I could moan
Say I want to be left alone
But that's not really true,
Because I like my time with you

Till you rant and you rave
Wishing fat folks to their grave
But I feel sorry for them
You say they get what they deserve

[Chorus]

And I don't want to get jaded
Petrified and weighted
I don't want to get bitter like you
Like you, with the darts in your eyes
Like you, with disdain for mankind
I was charmed, now I wonder

[Chorus]

So I'll smile with the rest
Wishing everyone the best
And know the one who made it,
Made it 'cause she was actually pretty good

[Chorus]

And I don't want to get jaded
Petrified and weighted
I don't want to get bitter like you

[Chorus]

And I don't want to get jaded
Petrified and weighted
I don't want to get bitter like you
