I Looked Into the Mirror, What Did the Mirror Say?
i looked into the mirror
what did the mirror say?
"you're the ugliest kid i've seen, will you please go way!!!"
my feelings had been hurt
my pride was damaged, i was crushed
my hair was combed, my clothes were clean
my teeth had all been brushed
took my father's overcoat and a faded old bow tie
came back to the mirror to get a new reply
mirror mirror on the wall, how do i look to you?
"just like that ugly kid!", the mirror said as i withdrew
i looked into the mirror
what did the mirror say?
"you're the ugliest kid i've seen, will you please go away!!"
found my mother's make-up kit and my grandmother's old wig
got some lipstick on my mouth and i made my chest look big
put my sister's sweater on and i rolled up both my sleeves
mirror was so silent, i was so relieved
then finally, the mirror spoke and made me feel so dumb
it said, "you're still weird and ugly! how come?"
i looked into the mirror
what did the mirror say?
"you're the ugliest kid i've seen, will you please go away!!"
couldn't please that mirror
no matter how i tried
i spent money, time and energy
and lots of nights i cried
i realized that though it's good to see the way you look
what's important is who you are
that's what i mistook
yeah, the best reflection of who you are comes from another place
so i bought a brand new mirror...
and got a haircut just in case
i looked into the mirror
what did the mirror say?
"you may be the ugliest kid i've seen but please don't go away!!!"
what did the mirror say?
"you're the ugliest kid i've seen, will you please go way!!!"
