Jason Mraz Beauty In Ugly
Friday, May 2nd, 2008Expert singer and compulsive hat-wearer Jason Mraz is a powerful figure in the music world these days. His beautiful music, drawn from a wide variety of different genres, entrances listeners everywhere. And there’s no better proof of his inspirational acoustic stylings than in The Beauty in Ugly.
Crafted for the hit TV show Ugly Betty, Beauty in Ugly discusses the difficulty of growing up in a world filled with “pretty people” whose concern is primarily on skin-deep attraction. Mraz, however, pushes his listeners to embrace that which they’d normally be ashamed of and be happy with who they are rather than try and change to be somebody else.
In the end it’s the perfect message to give to a materialistic world such as this, and the best addition to a show the likes of Ugly Betty. Give it a listen if you’re having a bad day and it’s sure to lighten your mood.

The Beauty in Ugly Lyrics
she’s so big hearted,
but not so remarkable
just an ordinary humble girl
expecting nothing as we’re made to think
its a pretty person’s world
but you are beautiful and you better go show it
go look again, you gotta be true to your own
if you really wanna go to the top
do you really wanna win?
don’t believe in living normal, just to satisfy demand
well if you wanna get free
and if you wanna do the passionate thing
and if you wanna get smart for the sake of your heart
you should own your name and stand up tall
and get real and see the beauty in ugly
well you are fresh, you’re face is fabulous
don’t forget you’re one of a kind
when nobody is checking the deeds you’ve done
and nobody is hearing your cries
you make all of the fashion statements
just by dressing up your mind
well if you wanna get free
and if you wanna do the passionate thing
and if you wanna get smart for the sake of your heart
you should own your name and stand up tall
and get real and see the beauty in ugly
and see the beauty in ulgy
well if you wanna get free
and if you wanna do the passionate thing
and if you wanna get smart for the sake of your heart and oh
you should own your name and stand up tall
and get real and see the beauty in ugly
see the beauty in a ulgy
