The Not So Pretty Princess

The not so pretty princess was the clown of the class
She made funny faces so the kids would let her pass
There was danger of dying at every turn
Don't get caught crying was all that she learned

And the not so pretty princess was the queen inside her room
And the world was in her closet while she dressed for her groom
There were angels above her and furs on the floor
Nobody loved her outside of the door

And she's so pretty 'cause she will never be
She's so pretty to me, to me, to me
It doesn't matter what everybody sees
She's so pretty to me
(She's so, so pretty, she's so, so pretty)

The not so pretty princess met a doctor with a knife
And he said there was a lot of ways that he could change her life
And with the nose of a reindeer, the skin of a plum
But now she'll be lovely, forever look dumb

And she's so pretty 'cause she will never be
She's so pretty to me, to me, to me
I try to tell her but she just won't believe
She's so pretty to me
(She's so, so pretty, she's so)

If she could only see angels above her
And her fears on the floor
And she needs to discover
She wants more and more and more

The not so pretty princess was the clown of the class
She made funny faces when they wouldn't let her pass
There was danger of dying at every turn
Don't get caught crying was all that she learned

And she's so pretty 'cause she will never be
She's so pretty to me, to me, to me
It doesn't matter what everybody sees
She's so lovely when she comes to me

She's so pretty 'cause she will never be
She's so pretty to me, to me, to me
I try to tell her but she just won't believe
She's so pretty to me

(She's so pretty, she's so)
She's so pretty to me
(She's so pretty, she's so)
(She's so pretty to me)

(She's so pretty, she's so)
The not so pretty princess, she will never be
(She's so pretty, she's so)
The not so pretty princess
(She's so pretty to me)

She's so pretty, she's so
(She's so pretty, she's so)
The not so pretty princess
She's so pretty to me
