[verse 1]
it was my fifth grade christmas pageant
i went up to read my passage
got the giggles, the kind that you can’t stop

i crept back to my seat
face as red as boys are mean
he said, “hey fat girl, you ruined everything”

[refrain]
i wiped the tears off my glasses on my velvet christmas dress
and i wondered if i’d ever be pretty

[verse 2]
watched the mirrorball spin
around the middle school gym
hopes were high, but i was shy, and he was a cool kid

my best friend asked him
to ask me to dance
he said, “i can’t, she’s too fat”
and he just laughed

[refrain]
i pretended not to cry by the free throw line
and i wondered if i’d ever be pretty
[verse 3]
when i was 17
some old has-been said to me
“honey, you look like a million bucks

but if you lost 30 pounds
oh, just think about it
i bet you’d look like 20 million”

so i cut hard and i cut fast
ran round and round the high school track
there wasn’t one d-mn calorie i didn’t know

i stuck fingers down my throat
to fit into my skinny coat
we all pretended not to notice the water running

[refrain]
brushed my t–th and wiped my eyes on a polka dot towel
and i wondered if i’d ever be pretty

[verse 4]
now that i’m grown up
i’ve tried to learn to love
every curve, every line, every imperfection
there’s a woman in the mirror
but sometimes i still see her
the little girl who would never be pretty

[refrain]
i step up and let some number make it a good or bad day
i’ll be d-mned if i’ll ever be pretty
