About the Artist
Lyrics
Pretty woman Blubbing away Your features all contorted in despair Mascara running Been crying all day But deep down you're delighted It's unfair Cos' you got delicious eyes Why don't the beautiful cry Is it only in the movies Never in real life Why don't the beautiful cry I wish I wasn't ugly On the outside I see you looking For something to do To satisfy some superficial need To make the world think You're somebody who Has a heart that might actually bleed Well, you told yourself a lie Why don't the beautiful cry Is it only in the movies Never in real life Why don't the beautiful cry I wish I wasn't ugly On the outside But I am Ugly Oh yeah We are all but bubble and squeak In the frying pan The frying pan of life Why don't the beautiful cry It's only in the movies Never in real life Why don't the beautiful cry When you poke them Poke them in the eye But I am Ugly Yes I am
