Lyrics

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 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

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 lovely
She's so pretty to me
She's so lovely

The not so pretty princess she will never be..
The not so pretty princess

So pretty. she's so..
The not so pretty princess, she's so pretty to me
