"Freckles" lyrics

"Freckles"

One, two, three, you know you're beautiful!
One, two, three, you know you're beautiful!
One, two, three, you know you're beautiful!
One, two, three, you know you're beautiful! (Keep it going)
One, two, three, you know you're beautiful!
One, two, three, you know you're beautiful!

I think my face in the morning's rough
Did I wear braces for long enough?
It sucks
I'm overly critical, so sick of typical me
My TV said, "Make your eyebrows thin"
I pull them all out
Now thick's back in
I can't win
I'm overly critical, so sick of typical me

I hide the freckles above my knee
I'll be whatever they want to see
But then I tell myself

You're kinda looking like a stranger
Why would you ever want to change your...
Your freckles (Two, three, you know you're beautiful!)
You, why would you listen to the loser
Why would you ever want to lose your...
Your freckles (Two, three, you know you're beautiful!)

Got full blown acne at twenty-two
My year's been dope, thanks
And how 'bout you? (Woohoo)
I'm overly critical, so sick of typical me

I hide the freckles above my knee
'Cause I'll be whatever they want to see
But then I tell myself

You're kinda looking like a stranger
Why would you ever want to change your...
Your freckles (Two, three, you know you're beautiful!)
You, why would you listen to the loser
Why would you ever want to lose your...
Your freckles (Two, three, you know you're beautiful!)

You know you're beautiful
You know you're beautiful
You know you're beautiful

You, you're kinda looking like a stranger
Why would you ever want to change your...
Your freckles, freckles, hey (You know you're beautiful!)
You, why would you listen to the loser
Why would you ever want to lose your...
No no no, your freckles
You know you're beautiful

Alright, so
As I said this song is about insecurities, and um
Did I say that enough? This song is about insecurities
When I was in middle school, I had this teacher
It was right at the beginning of when I started to sing in front of people
And I sang for my whole school, and I got off stage and I was on this high
And he was like "Hey, you did a great job, you sounded pretty good, like you should keep singing maybe. But you do this weird thing when you sing where you make these weird faces. Like, you look really weird when you sing"
I was like "Thank you for that very inspiring comment, teacher"
But what I will say about that is
I tried for like a month singing with very normal expressions, like modelling while I sing
It was the most boring month of my life, and I sang badly
So if you're a girl or you're a performer and people have whispered these sort of nonsense bullshit things in your ear while you're trying to be someone, just forget about it because it's so boring
It's so boring!
And I'm pretty sure some of you came here to see me weird fucking faces, so
I'd say the most beautiful person that I know, actually that all of you know, is Michael Karsh, on the bass

You know you're beautiful
You know you're beautiful
You know you're beautiful
You know you're beautiful
You know you're beautiful, sing! (You know you're beautiful)
You know you're beautiful (You know you're beautiful)
You know you're beautiful, what! (You know you're beautiful)
You know you're beautiful (You know you're beautiful)
You know you're beautiful (You know you're beautiful)
You know you're beautiful, yeah (You know you're beautiful)
You know you're beautiful (You know you're beautiful)
You know you're, I said yes you are!

Oh, you know you're beautiful, yeah
Yeah, you know you're beautiful (You know you're beautiful)
I said, yes you are! (Alright let's do this!)
One, two, three, you know you're beautiful!
