Pretty Big Deal

She's pretty as a picture, she'll take away yr breath
She's pretty as a picture ad got about as much depth
And all her life they told her: "Yr such a pretty girl."
And now she's sitting pretty in the cold, cruel world
So what yr pretty? Big deal
Now it's time to get real
She doesn't read the paper, she doesn't watch tv
She don't know much about nothing, she's just like you and me
And all her life they told her: "Honey, you can be anything you want"
Nobody ever told her: "Sometimes you can't"
So what yr pretty? Big deal
Now it's time to get real
Sometimes angels come down .............. and hit the ground
So what yr pretty? Big deal
Now it's time to get real
