lyrics

"Pretty Isn't Everything"

I don't like the color blue
I don't think that it's pretty
And I can't even tell you why
But if you think it's pretty
Well that's no concern of mine
And anyway pretty isn't everything
Let's face it, that's a lie

Pretty is like armor some people get to wear
It's the first thing that other people see
They can be strong or smart or brave or good at lots of things
But sometimes all we notice is only that they're pretty

You have to be pretty in your own way
And not get stuck on what other people say
Being kind can show anyone you're pretty
And everyone has their very own beauty

Pretty is a word you might think is just for looks
But that leaves so much beauty out
Try to think of pretty as being a lot like lucky
And everyone has something they feel lucky about

You have to be pretty in your own way
And not get stuck on what other people say
Being kind can show anyone you're pretty
And everyone has their very own beauty

I don't like the color blue
I don't think that it's pretty
And I can't even tell you why
But if you think it's pretty
Well that's no concern of mine
And anyway pretty isn't everything
And really, that's just fine
