Correct lyrics? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Which one is the correct lyric for TLC's "Unpretty"? Is it "You can buy all the make up that man can make"? or is it "You can buy all the make-up that MAC can make? Lyric searches have shown both lyrics. Which one is it?

Which one is the correct lyric for "Superchick's "One girl Revolution?" Is it "I am confidence, insecurity"? Or "I am confidence in insecurity?" The first one really doesn't make sense because it is a contradiction to say I am confident AND insecurity.

"Unpretty"
WRITTEN BY: Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins and Dallas Austin

I wish I could tie you up in my shoes
Make you feel unpretty too
I was told I was beautiful
But what does that mean to you
Look into the mirror who's inside there
The one with the long hair
Same old me again today (yeah)

My outsides look cool
My insides are blue
Everytime I think I'm through
It's because of you
I've tried different ways
But it's all the same
At the end of the day
I have myself to blame
I'm just trippin'

Chorus:
You can buy your hair if it won't grow
You can fix your nose if he says so
You can buy all the make-up that Mac can make
But if you can't look inside you
Find out who am I to
Be in the position to make me feel so damn unpretty

Never insecure until I met you
Now I'm in stupid
I used to be so cute to me
Just a little bit skinny
Why do I look to all these things
To keep you happy
Maybe get rid of you
And then I'll get back to me (hey)

My outsides look cool
My insides are blue
Everytime I think I'm through
It's because of you
I've tried different ways
But it's all the same
At the end of the day
I have myself to blame
I can't believe I'm trippin'

Chorus

Chorus

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh (oh)
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh (oh)

Chorus

Chorus
