THE LYRICS:

Put your purse down Michelle
Can tell by your actions you're not feeling well
The waifs think they're fat
Matt makes fun of all the fat girls
We're living in a kick your own ass world

Put away your makeup Jamie
If mirrors could talk they'd say you're beautiful
On sale $12.99
A new outfit you'll feel fine
Screw that—we're cool enough to be our own heroes

I saw you glow in the street light
Wearing blue jeans and yawns
Your night face was on
And I swear to you I wouldn't lie
There's beauty you can't buy
I want you to see yourself for the first time

Miss. C she's a wise one
Help my friend he hates spending time alone
Take how cool you are multiplied by my admiration
I know your number my friend
And it ain't half bad

What's wrong my little rock star
Is it other people's damage and decay?
300 people I know 299 think you're ravishing
Little girl if only you could saw it too.

I saw you glow in the stage light
Wearing dreams and some songs
Your night face was on
And I swear to you I wouldn't lie
There's beauty you can't buy
I want you to see yourself for the first time
You're beautiful.
