Pretty Second
I am pretty when I wanna be
At least physically
When I do my makeup, I get dolled up
Feel like royalty
But why does that feeling never stay?
Why do the good days go away?
Why don't the ones that like girls come flirting my way? (my way)
'Cuz I'm everything first and pretty second
My talent and pen and my wit are my weapons
After eighteen years, you'd think I'd learn my lesson
That pretty is what sells, pretty isn't second
(Pretty, pretty)
Pretty isn't second
(Pretty, pretty)
Oh
I never catch anyone's eye solely from the outside
Sometimes an ego boost would lend to my pride
'Cuz I'm golden for what's past my eyes (What's past my eyes)
But why does that feeling never stay?
Why do the good days go away? (Go, go, go away)
Why don't the ones that like girls come flirting my way?
'Cuz I'm everything first and pretty second
My talent and pen and my wit are my weapons
After eighteen years, you'd think I'd learn my lesson
That pretty is what sells, pretty isn't second
(Pretty, pretty)
(Pretty, pretty)
Took a break from my profiles for whiles at a time
So much pressure to be fine
To get opportunities in line
But why do the feelings never stay?
Why do the good days go away? (Go, go, go away)
Why don't the ones that like girls come flirting my way?
'Cuz I'm everything first and pretty second
My talent and pen and my wit are my weapons
After eighteen years, you'd think I learned my lesson
That pretty is what sells, pretty isn't second
(Pretty is what sells)
(Pretty, pretty)
Pretty is what sells
Pretty is what sells
Pretty is what sells
(Pretty, pretty)
It's what sells
Pretty isn't second
What sells
(Pretty, pretty)
(Pretty, pretty)
And pretty isn't second
At least physically
When I do my makeup, I get dolled up
Feel like royalty
But why does that feeling never stay?
Why do the good days go away?
Why don't the ones that like girls come flirting my way? (my way)
'Cuz I'm everything first and pretty second
My talent and pen and my wit are my weapons
After eighteen years, you'd think I'd learn my lesson
That pretty is what sells, pretty isn't second
(Pretty, pretty)
Pretty isn't second
(Pretty, pretty)
Oh
I never catch anyone's eye solely from the outside
Sometimes an ego boost would lend to my pride
'Cuz I'm golden for what's past my eyes (What's past my eyes)
But why does that feeling never stay?
Why do the good days go away? (Go, go, go away)
Why don't the ones that like girls come flirting my way?
'Cuz I'm everything first and pretty second
My talent and pen and my wit are my weapons
After eighteen years, you'd think I'd learn my lesson
That pretty is what sells, pretty isn't second
(Pretty, pretty)
(Pretty, pretty)
Took a break from my profiles for whiles at a time
So much pressure to be fine
To get opportunities in line
But why do the feelings never stay?
Why do the good days go away? (Go, go, go away)
Why don't the ones that like girls come flirting my way?
'Cuz I'm everything first and pretty second
My talent and pen and my wit are my weapons
After eighteen years, you'd think I learned my lesson
That pretty is what sells, pretty isn't second
(Pretty is what sells)
(Pretty, pretty)
Pretty is what sells
Pretty is what sells
Pretty is what sells
(Pretty, pretty)
It's what sells
Pretty isn't second
What sells
(Pretty, pretty)
(Pretty, pretty)
And pretty isn't second
