about

Live Studio performance of "Beautifully Ugly", recorded in one take.

lyrics

I remember the first time that we met
When I asked you, "do I make your body sweat?"
You laughed right in my face knowing
That I was trying to make you smile
And at that moment you fell in love with me
Even though you know that

I'm not that hot
I'm not that sexy
I'm not that fine
But you still love me because I'm beautifully ugly

I know I ain't the type to make you holler "damn!"
I'm more like the hunchback of Notre Dame
My looks can kill, and by kill
I mean you'd want to kill yourself if you looked like me
I ain't got a gap to seperate my eyebrows
But I got a gap between the two front teeth in my mouth
I ain't built like the boys from Pretty Ricky
I'm about as skinny as Nicole Richie
You know I'm not eye candy
But you don't care, you still love me
