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
