Beautiful Lyrics & Video

Barenaked Ladies See albums and popular songs

What if you were not just for show?

What if you were not good to go?

What if you were simply not so

Beautiful

What if you were not thin and tall?

What if you were done with it all?

What if you were not baby-doll

Beautiful

(Beautiful)

Isn't she?

(Beautiful)

Paid to be

(Beautiful)

When I see

(Beautiful)

Shame on me

Hoping that it's deeper than skin

Open to the beauty within

Scoping out the room's not a sin

Beautiful

Beautiful

And not much else

Not much else going on

No matter 'cause no one's as

(Beautiful)

Everytime she walks in the room their heads all turn to find her

(Beautiful)

Everything she says I simply say I never mind.*

(Beautiful)

Everyone she sees seems to ignore the whole experience.

(Beautiful)

Everytime she sees me checking her appearance

What if one day I wake up blind?

Would I go on losing my mind?

Groping in the dark just to find

Beautiful

Beauty disappears

Boredom perserveres

(Beautiful)

Isn't she?

(Beautiful)

Paid to be

(Beautiful)

When I see

(Beautiful)

Shame on me

(Beautiful) Isn't she?

Everytime she walks in the room their heads all turn to find her

(Beautiful) Paid to be

Everything she says I simply say I never mind.

(Beautiful) When I see

Everyone she sees seems to ignore the whole experience.

(Beautiful)

Shame on me

Barenaked Ladies - Beautiful (The Bathroom Sessions): Beautiful changed very little from when we demoed it in Kev's living room to what's on BLAM... or is it BLAMen?? It's simple, but I can never remember the chords. I did this time. (video from YouTube)
