Miss Third Ward your first question: what is your aspiration in life' oh, my aspiration in life would be to be happy.

^BMama said^C#m, you're a pretty^G#m girl What's in your hea^F#d it doesn't mat^Bter Brush your^C#m hair, fix your ^G#mteeth What you we^F#ar is all that m^Batters

[Pre-Hook] Just another stage Pageant the pain away This time I'm gonna take the crown Without falling down, down [Hook] B C#m G#m F# Pretty hurts Shine the light on whatever's worse Perfection is the disease of a nation Pretty hurts Shine the light on whatever's worse Tryna fix something But you can't fix what you can't see It's the soul that needs the surgery [Verse 2] Blonder hair, flat chest TV says bigger is better South beach, sugar free Vogue says thinner is better [Pre-Hook + Hook] [Bridge]

^EAin't got no doctor or pill that can take the pa^G#min away The pain's inside And nobody frees you from your^B body It's the soul that needs surge^F#ry (x2) ^EPlastic smiles and denial can only take you s^G#mo far And you break when the paper signs you in the ^Edark You left a shattered mirror And the shards of a beautiful^F# girl

[Hook] [same progression as the beginning: B C#m G#m F#] [Outro] When you're alone all by yourself And you're lying in your bed Reflection stares right into you Are you happy with yourself' It's just a way to masquerade The illusion has been shed Are you happy with yourself' (x2) Yes
