you surely told me
To freshen up your drink
You would like to lose your memory
But you stop and think
You have an image
Like a good girl should
But you'd take it from its package
And you'd break it if you could
Pretty is as pretty does
Pretty is as pretty does
You've got money
And lots of pretty clothes
But all the money in the world
Can't buy you comfort for your soul
You have opinions
On how your life is run
But you don't let it concern you
While you're trying to have fun
Pretty is as pretty does
Pretty is as pretty does
Say you've got a good reason
To throw all your money away
On candy and make up
To Hide seventeen years of pain
You sat on your daddy's knee
He told you everything was all right
When you went for your mother's blessing
She said
Hush
your
tears
and
say
goodnight
You got a secret
That's burning up your mind
And you'd like to share your secret
But I'd have to wait in line
Pretty is as pretty does
Pretty is as pretty does
Pretty is as pretty does
Pretty is as pretty does
