I'm Just Fine


Maybe if I dye my hair or straighten my teeth,

I'll look just like the glamour girls you see on t.v.

Wonder if that'll catch his eyes.

 

But really I'm just fine being me.

No need to worry, I'm always happy.

I laugh when I fall, I accept all my flaws,

and including all of me.

I'm just fine being me.

 

I say the wrong things, I laugh too much.

I'm "way too quiet", or I "don't talk enough".

Wonder why they say those things.

 

But really I'm just fine being me.

No need to worry, I'm always happy.

I laugh when I fall, I accept all my flaws,

and including all of me.

I'm just fine being me.

 

If I wear some heels, add some height,

maybe I'll feel somewhat satisfied.

Wonder if I'll ever fit right in.

 

But really I'm just fine being me.

No need to worry, I'm always happy.

I laugh when I fall, I accept all my flaws,

and including all of me.

I'm just fine being me.
