The not-so-pretty princess was the clown of her class
She made funny faces when they wouldnt let her pass
There was danger of dying at every turn
Dont get caught crying was all that she learned
And the not-so- pretty princess was the queen of her room
And the world was in her closest while she dressed for the groom
There were angels above her and pearls on the floor
And nobody loved her outside of the door
And shes so pretty
She will never be
So pretty
But she will never be
Shes so pretty to me, yeah
Shes so pretty and she will...
And the not-so-pretty-princess met a doctor with a knife
He said there was a lot of ways he could change her life
Then with the nose of a reindeer, the skin of a plum
For now shell be lovely forever though dumb
And shes so pretty
She will never be
So pretty
But she will never be
Shes so pretty to me, yeah, yeah
Youre gonna see her places
Youre gonna see
Youre gonna see her and say
hey - thats my maria
