lyrics

UGLY.
Baby, have you noticed one thing seems to be on everyone's mind? Trying to look good, trying to look pretty now. It's taking up so much of our time.

Baby, have you noticed all of the beauty already all around us? There's beauty in trees swaying and what poets are saying, so it ain't no big to let your ugly hang out for a minute!

We're all ugly when the lights go out now...

Let your unattractive get active. (UGLY)
Let your nasty shine through. (UGLY)
Make the most of your gross now.(UGLY)
Baby, do those ugly things you do.(UGLY)

Well don't think twice about bringing your girlfriend to that ska show. She thinks you look real hot when you flail in the skank pit. Get sweaty (Uh), you're ready (ha) to rock some ugly dancing, but not give a shit.

We're always trying to look so good.
Don't you think it's time we understood that-
We're all ugly when the lights go out.
