Isn't It A Pity

[Intro Excerpted Voice]

(I must admit we do get along, he's quite a man! 

No saint of course, but you must have expected that before you married him.

Maybe that was why you married him...)



[Verse 1]

I'm a kind of hybrid of a cartoon and a feature,

Some have thought me lovely, others saw an ugly creature.

Some have thought me right at times and others found me tired,

And I couldn't count the times that my backside has been admired.



[Bridge]

Beauty is glitter in my eyes,

I really wanted roses but you sent me custard pies.



[Chorus]

Isn't it a pity that I'm not the prettiest girl in the world, sometimes I feel when I

Kick up my heels in the sun,

I'm the loveliest one.



Isn't it a pity that I'm not the prettiest girl in the world? But sometimes I feel when I

Kick up my heels in the sun,

I'm the loveliest one.



[Verse 2]

I'm a kind of cross between a pupil and a teacher,

Some have found me lovely, others saw an ugly creature.

I have found my image has obscured all that I am,

But who said you can't mix vinegar with jam?



[Bridge]

Beauty is glitter in my eyes,

I really wanted roses but you sent me custard pies.



[Chorus]

Isn't it a pity that I'm not the prettiest girl in the world? But sometimes I feel when I

Kick up my heels in the sun,

I'm the loveliest one.



Isn't it a pity that I'm not the prettiest girl in the world, sometimes I feel when I

Kick up my heels in the sun,

I'm the loveliest one.



[Breakdown]

Isn't it a pity (the London image makers...

Face is made for mirror breakage,

You know their magazines 

can not affect my self esteem!)



Beauty...
