| Believe me i would rather say nothing than lie
|
| But have you heard about that so-called beautiful guy
|
| I was begging for some money at the usual time
|
| The only thing he gave me was a lousy dime
|
| How can you call that beautiful
|
| Why can’t you see that i’m beautiful
|
| How can you call that beautiful
|
| Why can’t you see how beautiful i am
|
| I never paid him much attention before
|
| I think i know why i never noticed him more
|
| He doesn’t pay enough attention to me He’s a nice enough guy but he’s not what i am You believe me, i believe every word you say
|
| So tell me what you did to be beautiful today
|
| It’s not that i think you’re not a beautiful lot
|
| I wouldn’t want to hang around with someone who’s not
|
| How can you call that beautiful
|
| Why can’t i see that you’re beautiful
|
| How can you call that beautiful
|
| Why can’t i see how beautiful you are too
|
| You’re a nice enough guy
|
| But you’re not what you’d have me believe
|
| I guess we’re not as beautiful as we thought
|
| But it really doesn’t matter
|
| As long as we’re all just as ugly
|
| I guess i really have made a lot of mistakes
|
| And maybe i haven’t got what it takes
|
| The stuff that i need to be a beautiful me
|
| I’m a nice enough guy
|
| But i’m not what i’d have you believe |
