(Intro Instrumental)
We were so tiny, happy and shiny
Playing tag and getting chased
Singing and clapping, laughing and napping
Baking cookies, eating paste
Then we got bigger, that was the trigger
Like the Huns invading Rome
Welcome to my school, this ain't no high school
This is the Thunderdome
Hold your breath and count the days, we're graduating soon
College will be paradise if I'm not dead by June
But I know, I know, life can be beautiful
I pray, I pray for a better way
If we changed back then, we could change again
We can be beautiful...
Just not today
Things will get better, soon as my letter
Comes from Harvard, Duke or Brown
Wake from this coma, take my diploma
Then I can blow this town
Dream of ivy-covered walls and smoky French cafes
Fight the urge to strike a match and set this temple ablaze
But I know, I know, I know life can be beautiful
I pray, I pray, I pray for a better way
We were kind before, we can be kind once more
We can be beautiful...
Just not today
And I know, I know life can be beautiful
I pray, I pray for a better way
We were kind before, we can be kind once more
We can be beautiful...
Just not today
Why do they hate me? Why don't I fight back?
Why do I act like such a creep?
I wish he dated me... Why did I hit him?
Why do I cry myself to sleep?
Somebody hug me! Somebody fix me!
Somebody save me! Send me a sign, God!
Give me some hope here, something to live for!
Ahhh!
(Heather, Heather and Heather)
(I love Heather, Heather and Heather)
And you know, you know, you know this could be beautiful
Mascara, maybe some lip gloss and on our way
Get this girl some blush and Heather I need your brush
Let's make me beautiful, let's make her beautiful
Let's make us beautiful...
Okay? Okay!
Out of my way, geek! I don't want trouble!
You're gonna die at 3:00 PM!
Don't you dare touch me! Get away, pervert!
What did I ever do to them?
We could survive this, I can reshape this
I think I'm dying...
And you know, you know, you know life can be beautiful
You hope, you dream, you pray and then you get your way
Ask me how it feels, looking like hell on wheels
My god, it's beautiful! (Beautiful!)
I might be beautiful! (Beautiful!)
And when you're beautiful...
It's a beautiful freaking day!
