Only Pretty, What A Pity(2003 Remaster) - The Lovin' Spoonful

作词:Joe Butler/Jerry Yester

作曲:Joe Butler/Jerry Yester

Eyes to look at not to see through

She never could see truth for lies

With a smile she'd win em over

Her face a trick to take a prize

Tickled pink

The mid aged dandy

Sold his horse to buy her all the

Icing for her face like candy

Hung up the mirrors wall to wall

Married life was short but funny

With long lost cousins dropping by

Later on her alimony

Paid for young men's gentle nighs

By the window hangs a mirror

Where she hides her sagging chin

Now sadly as she crouches nearer

Never seeing past her skin

Mommy said

When you were younger

The face you made would stay that way

That's all true and if you doubt it

Reflect upon yourself today

Everyone except the baby

Answers for the face they wear

It's the mast of your contentment

Or the mask of your despair

Only Pretty What a pity

Only Pretty What a pity

Only Pretty What a pity

Only Pretty What a pity

Only Pretty What a pity

Only Pretty What a pity

Only Pretty What a pity

Only Pretty What a pity
