Stefani, Gwen - War Paint Lyrics
In the mirror super close, magnifies of diagnose
Seeing things I never saw before
Reformation to get clear, 'bout to take on that new frontier
Leave it here, don't need no souvenir
Some scars you just can't cover up
Here I am again
This time I just have had enough
I'm runnin' late, put on my war paint
Cause I'm getting ready for the combat
Get out my way, got on my war paint
Cause I'm getting ready for the combat
With each stroke I take, I put on my face
I make a mistake then I Q-tip, erase
I'm getting ready for the combat
I'm goin' tribal
On ya, on ya, on ya, on ya, on ya
I'm goin' tribal
On ya, on ya, on ya, on ya, on ya
I've had my share of tragedies
Watching my mascara bleed
But I got some tricks way up my sleeve
Tip-toeing through the minefields
I'm so scared of how this feels
I'm so scared of how I feel
Decorate my skin
I decorate my face
Some scars you just can't cover up
Here I am again
This time I just have had enough
I'm runnin' late, put on my war paint
Cause I'm getting ready for the combat
Get out my way, got on my war paint
Cause I'm getting ready for the combat
I'm goin' tribal
On ya, on ya, on ya, on ya, on ya
I'm goin' tribal
On ya, on ya, on ya, on ya, on ya
I'm getting ready
I'm runnin' late, put on my war paint
Cause I'm getting ready for the combat
Get out my way, got on my war paint
Cause I'm getting ready for the combat
With each stroke I take, I put on my face
I make a mistake then I Q-tip, erase
It's not that I'm fake, it's just my war paint, yeah
I'm getting ready for the combat
I'm gonna try boy
On ya, on ya, on ya, on ya, on ya
I'm gonna try boy
On ya, on ya, on ya, on ya, on ya

get your prescription filled, you old bat.
This whole album is great!!
In love with this song😍
Love the jamm
Love this song! I wish Gwen would share her make-up tricks and hacks!
Guarantee this didn't come out in the US after the controversy with the No Doubt Looking Hot music video...
What controversy?
this song? I don't remember at all
i love you gwen stefani😍😍😍😏😏😏😏🙉🙈🙈🙈🙊
Weird atmosphere..
I love it
I love this song can not stop listening to it
I like it pls I wana a lyrics
I think this wasn't on the American album cause BuzzFeed would make an article about appropriation or something lmaoo. Grrr why are all the good tracks on the Japanese albums, without fail!
This is one of my faves. It should have been bonus on the standard addition :(
I really like this song and it reminds me of magic's in the makeup. Obviously this song has a different meaning but just similar theme.
written by Sia. :)
Sia is not listed as a credited writer for this song, but Sia did write "Start A War" which is an unreleased Gwen Stefani fan-favorite that was only ever performed live once. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAsU6Os4yDs
This owns written by Rajakumari
It was a bonus song on the international version of her latest album This is What the Truth Feels Like. This version of the albun was Not sold in the US. Had to order it from overseas to get it.
thank you i feel a bit cheated with that but atleast i know why its missing
Listen to this song on my way home from work literally everyday!!
this was not on my target album neither was loveable and its not on itunes either :(
You did it again, I'm glad you showed me War Paint because I didn't see that one on you tube yet, must of went past it. Love this one too. Spot on with everything you are singing about. It just shows how classy you are, you haven't even once bashed your ex-husband or your ex-nanny in public and that my dear had to take a huge amount of faith and asking God to hold you and comfort you during this most difficult time. Gwen you stayed true to who you are, and that is totally RAD <3 XOXO
+Denise Dunbar Well said!
this song is so genius
+John Fahey Yes! She is such a great lyricist!
+Gwen Stefani Collection I LOVE THIS MUSIC ! !AND ALL GWENS SONGS ! !😁😇😍💖👄💋💕✌
I hear one song and I think that's my favorite and than I listen to the next one and than that's my favorite. You hit this album out of the park Gwen Stefani!!!! <3
+Denise Dunbar Yes! Same! I literally can't decide which is my favorite! I love pretty much all of them. Just out of curiosity, are there any at all that you don't care for out of the 18 tracks?
I wish we could hear Gwen's version of What The Truth Feels Like. this song sounds like it's from the "Baby don't lie" and "Spark a Fire" period
+rocky362 I would love to have heard some more of those songs! I particularly love Start A War and Shine...wish she would release them!
this song must be on NO Doubt "Rock Steady" Album , not Gwen Solo but yesss it a very good song
+Fredo Beno It has that feel to it!
No it is not in Rock Steady. It is a Gwen Stefano solo song.
@Amanda Ngo I know this is Gwen solo song from her newest album, but i think this song had a "No Doubt" sound/style , especially "Rock Steady" sound /style album.
Almost a No Doubt song. I will never understand why this song wasn't included on the standard album. Definitely better than some standard tracks...
+IVO Muzik I agree! It is great song, and definitely better than several on the standard album.
Way more No Doubt then some of the songs on TIWTTFL wish she had this and Lovable (the other track not added) replace some of the other songs on her album. These are way more what Gwen's sound is...
Its because it wasnt suitable with the whole theme of the album
This is such an awesome song
+Renne Arias Fantastic for sure! One of my favorites!
@Richard Buncher I am a bit disappointed it is not on the official US release :( such a shame... I CAN"T STOP LISTENING TO IT
+Renne Arias Yes! I wish It could be at least a normal bonus track. It does fit well as a bonus track as opposed to a normal track, but it sucks that it isn't available in the States. Such a gem!
