For the pretty boy, the one whos paper thin

by Marcie   Oct 20, 2004


One night playin in the coffee house
I met a pretty boy
he looked my way
and I thought I would die
His smile was pearly white
his clothes neat, his hair straight
and he was looking at me.
I kept on playin my song
the lyrics going on and on
and I smiled at the pretty boy
Oh I was in love
Later after the place closed down
he came to me, I looked around
and he smiled.

He said you are such an ugly girl
but I love hearin you play
and I wanted to cry so bad
I just couldnt do it this way
and he asked if he could call me
he wanted to see me again
and I just smiled and said sure
and Of course I thanked him.

Oh how I wanted
to be a pretty girl like her
the one who never walks in a coffe shoppe, the one with the manicure
I just want someone
to think I\'m beautiful too
and so badly I wanted that one
to be you.

He said you are such an ugly girl
but I love hearin you play
and I wanted to cry so bad
I just couldnt do it this way
and he asked if he could call me
he wanted to see me again
and I just smiled and said sure
and Of course I thanked him.

When he called I cried
I was suprised he did
he said he wanted to see me
and asked if I wanted to then
he said he would be over
in 30 minutes or less
so I wiped the tears and smiled
oh my lifes so paper thin

He said you are such an ugly girl
but I love hearin you play
and I wanted to cry so bad
I just couldnt do it this way
and he asked if he could call me
he wanted to see me again
and I just smiled and said sure
and Of course I thanked him.

I waited for an hour
He car not seen or heard
and I started to cry
from mascara eyes
my worlds so paper thin
I just wish
I was beautiful to him
and that night he called and cancelled to be with her
the one who was beautiful and thin

Oh how I wanted
To break that pretty boy
the one with a pretty smile
the one who was paper thin

He said you are such an ugly girl
but I love hearin you play
and I wanted to cry so bad
and I just smiled
and Of course I thanked him.

***~~~**This is kinda inspired by a song I read the lyrics to... possibly torri amos? o well this is for that pretty boy who listened to me the other day play some random seniors guitar and sing in the middle of the hall. People loved my voice, but not me..... this is for all the pretty boys, I wanna smash your faces in.... sick... sick*****~~~~
