Pretty Girl
I wish that I was pretty.
The kind of pretty that makes other girls jealous.
That makes them say, "Wow I hate her..."
I want to be the girl that other girls wish they were.
I know it's all about inner beauty and personality
But for once, just once, I want to be the pretty girl
Not the smart girl
Not the "copy her homework because she'll let you" girl
Not the quiet girl
Not the "what's her name again?" girl
I want to walk into a room confident
because I know they all call me
the pretty girl
I want to be that girl, that makes other girls wish they were
if only, just a fraction, just half as pretty as her
I don't mean to sound shallow or petty...
But my honest wish?
I wish I was pretty.
