Laura Jansen - Pretty me lyrics

rate me

<b>Pretty me</b> by <i>Laura Jansen</i><br />Five years old,

In my pink tutu,

I was spinning, spinning,

And no one ever knew.

But these Bruises hold,

a dirty clue,

I was spinning, spinning,

And no one ever knew.

Oh-oh pretty, pretty me,

I am the prettiest girl you ever did see.

Oh-oh pretty, pretty me,

I am the prettiest girl you ever did see.

Seventh grade, my boyfriend made

A joke about the way I looked, in the pool.

So I never ate,

Men, I looked great.

But I was spinning, spinning,

But no one ever knew.

Oh-oh pretty, pretty me,

I am the prettiest girl you ever did see.

Oh-oh pretty, pretty me,

I am the prettiest girl you ever did see.

Twenty-eight years old,

In my wedding dress, I'm told.

I am the prettiest girl,

He ever did see.

but six months on,

And that dress is gone,

Because the aisle,

Is to long for me.

Two bags,

A ticket,

A couch in L.A..

Nothing left to prove,

Finely something to say.

I am wise enough now,

Smart enough now,

I own my own mistakes.

But I got no job,

I got no car,

No drivers license,

No cash.

No savings,

No health care,

No furniture,

No place to live.

No IRA,

No retirement scheme.

No winter camp, no Christmas-tree

No family, near me.

No money for morning coffee

And no way, to pay off my debts.

But I am dreaming

Oh-oh pretty, pretty me,

I am the prettiest girl you ever did see.

Oh-oh pretty, pretty me,

I am the prettiest girl you ever did see.

You ever did see.
