Holding Out


Beauty Queen


Sometimes she seems a little bit awkward
And sometimes she doesn’t know what to say
Sometimes she doesn’t seem prim or proper
And if life was a game
Sometimes she doesn’t know how to play

But inside, she’s a beauty queen
And inside, she’s a star of the stage and screen
Just give her a chance
And love her for who she is and who she could be
‘Cause inside, she’s a beauty queen

Sometimes she keeps it all locked inside
And sometimes you can’t tell anything’s wrong
Sometimes she doesn’t feel alive
And if life was a tune
Sometimes she can’t quite name the song

But inside, she’s a beauty queen
And inside, she’s a star of the stage and screen
Just give her a chance
And love her for who she is and who she could be
‘Cause inside, she’s a beauty queen

Sometimes she just decides to give up
And sometimes she’d rather laugh than cry
Sometimes enough is enough
And with life as short as it is
You don’t have time to ask why

But inside, she’s a beauty queen
And inside, she’s a star of the stage and screen
Just give her a chance
And love her for who she is and who she could be
‘Cause inside, inside, inside
Inside she’s a beauty queen
