Olivia Rodrigo – pretty isn’t pretty

Intro 1

Bought a bunch of makeup, tryna cover up my face

I started to skip lunch, stopped eatin' cake on birthdays

I bought a new prescription to try and stay calm

'Cause there's always somethin' missin'

There's always somethin' in the mirror that I think looks wrong

When pretty isn't pretty enough, what do you do?

And everybody's keepin' it up, so you think it's you

I could change up my body and change up my face

I could try every lipstick in every shade

But I'd always feel the same

'Cause pretty isn't pretty enough anyway

You can win the battle, but you'll never win the war

You fix thе things you hated, and you'd still feel so insecure

And I try to ignorе it, but it's everythin' I see

It's on the poster on the wall, it's in the shitty magazines

It's in my phone, it's in my head, it's in the boys I bring to bed

It's all around, it's all the time, I don't know why I even try

When pretty isn't pretty enough, what do you do?

And everybody's keepin' it up, so you think it's you

I could change up my body and change up my face

I could try every lipstick in every shade

But I'd always feel the same

'Cause pretty isn't pretty enough

And I bought all the clothes that they told me to buy

I chased some dumb ideal my whole ****ing life

And none of it matters, and none of it ends

You just feel like shit over and over again

No, it'll never change

Pretty isn't pretty enough, mmm

Everybody's keepin' it up, oh

Pretty isn't pretty enough

Pretty isn't
