Another magazine creates a dream

That I can't reach

That I can't be

But I try to be

And another label tells me

That it's just not enough

To be just me

Airbrush those thoughts

Cause they're not pretty

But why do they want

Just a beautiful girl

Just a beautiful girl

Is that all that you need

Tell me

What's a beautiful girl

What's a beautiful girl

Is that all that you see

With the perfect answers

And the perfect smile

So you never have to really try

You know

That a beautiful girl

That a beautiful girl

Isn't all that it seems

Another two week diet failure

Another night of you ignoring me

And your silence burns

Through my dignity

You're not a glossy cover either

So why are you

Expecting me to be

Flesh or fantasy

My heart stills beats

But why do they want

Just a beautiful girl

Just a beautiful girl

Is that all that you need

Tell me

What's a beautiful girl

What's a beautiful girl

Is that all that you see

With the perfect answers

And the perfect smile

So you never have to really try

You know

That a beautiful girl

That a beautiful girl

Isn't all that it seems

Tell me what's so damn attractive

About being a mime

I know my beauty's in my story

Not one line

Tell me

What's a beautiful girl

What's a beautiful girl

Is that all that you see

With the perfect answers

And the perfect smile

So you never have to really try

You know

That a beautiful girl

That a beautiful girl

Isn't all that it seems
