The Darkness - Why Don't the Beautiful Cry? lyrics

Pretty woman blubbing away
Your features all contorted in despair
Mascara running been crying all day
But, deep down, you're delighted it's unfair

'Cause you got delicious eyes

Why don't the beautiful cry?
It's only in the movies
It's never in real life
Why don't the beautiful cry?
I wish I wasn't ugly, on the inside

I see you looking for something to do
To satisfy some superficial need
To make the world think you're somebody who
Has a heart that might actually bleed

Well, you told yourself a lie

Why don't the beautiful cry?


It's only in the movies
It's never in real life
Why don't the beautiful cry?
I wish I wasn't ugly, on the outside
But I am ugly oh, yeah

(Ooh, ugly, Ooh, ugly)

We are all but bubble and squeak
In the frying pan, the frying pan of life

Why don't the beautiful cry?
It's only in the movies, never in real life
Why don't the beautiful cry?
Even if you kick 'em, poke 'em in the eye
But I am ugly
Yes, I am
