Skin Deep Beauty Dries Up

You know, pretty people get to coast.
Life is handed to them almost.
The easy life is a dangerous life
'cause you don't learn how to survive.
This is why I'm glad I'm ugly:
'cause it forced me to work and study.
I wasn't gonna get by with my looks,
so I buried myself and books.
Now here I am, getting older--and so are they--
and suddenly no one has a pretty face.
But my way with words, my way with tunes,
is something you can get into.
That skin deep beauty is all dried up,
but here I stand with enough
beauty to go around.
