Lyrics

I see all the pretty houses
And all the happy people
I hear all the pretty songs
That they like to sing

And I'm standing on the corner
Counting picket fences
Watching shiny cars
As they roll along

And I feel a little ugly
Look through my eyes I think you'll agree
And I feel a little lonely
Look past my perfect smile and you'll see

And I know all the special places and all the happy couples And I know all the pretty paintings hanging on the wall
And I smile at the parties
Hoping that they'll end soon
I see another life just past that perfect wall

And I feel a little ugly
Look through my eyes I think you'll agree
And I feel a little lonely
Look past my perfect smile and you'll see

And I feel a little ugly
Look through my eyes I think you'll agree
And I feel a little lonely
Look past my perfect smile and you'll see

This song has a very good melody that is wistful and lonely and with simple, introspective, vulnerable, and picturesque lyrics...this is the kind of song that reminds me of what Neil Young might write. Don't let the rough recording fool you. Some polish will please the production people. But first, you must start with good songwriting and the writer behind this song has done just that.
