lyrics

Could've knocked me over
With a feather
When he took my hand
I was ready & willing
Ain't that the way
Love's supposed to go
When Mr. Right comes along?
I opened my heart
Bared my soul
Shocked he would make me the one
He can have whoever he wants
And he does
In the end, I'm still the lucky one

Ooh la la la
Isn't he handsome?
Beautiful, perfect, unlike me
Ooh la la la
Isn't he handsome?
It's beauty like his
That makes him better than me
Don't know what he sees
When he looks down at me
I'm just careful
To stay clear
Of a backhand and a sneer

And when he knocked me over
A right hook to my jaw
That was the first time
I don't really know why I stayed
That's not the way
I was raised
For Mr. Right to behave
I gave him my heart
And my soul
Thought that I could be the one
Whose love would change everything
But it hasn't
No, it hasn't
In the end, I'm still the lucky one

Ooh la la la
But isn't he handsome?
Highlighting my inferiority
Ooh la la la
Oh isn't he handsome?
He radiates superiority
Sometimes I hate to see
How I must look to be
Sans self-worth
Praying, silently, for my rebirth

I could be there
Or I could not
Doesn't really matter to him
I'm only something he quickly forgot
But when all is said and done
I'm still the lucky one because...

Isn't he handsome?
Beautiful, perfect, unlike me
Ooh la la la
Oh isn't he handsome?
Beauty like that makes him better than me
Ooh la la la
But isn't he handsome?
Highlighting my inferiority
Ooh la la la
Oh isn't he handsome?
He radiates superiority
Don't know what he sees
When he looks down at me
I'm just careful
To stay clear
Of that backhand and that sneer
Oh, sometimes I hate to see
How I must look to be
Sans self-worth
Praying, silently, for my rebirth
Praying, silently
Silently, for my rebirth
