Testi

[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"
[Verse 2]
Wiped the tears off my glasses
On my velvet Christmas dress
And I wondered if I'd ever be pretty
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
I pretended not to cry
By the free-throw line
And I wondered if I'd ever be pretty
[Verse 5]
Then when I was 17
Some old has-been said to me "Honey, you look like a million bucks
But if you lost 30 pounds, yeah
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 damn calorie I didn't know
I stuck fingers down my throat
To fit into my skinny coat
And we all pretended not to notice the water running
[Verse 6]
Brushed my teeth and wiped my eyes
On a polka dot towel
And I wondered if I'd ever be pretty
[Verse 7]
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
[Verse 8]
And I step up and let some number
Make it a good or bad day
I'll be damned if I'll ever be pretty
