I wish you knew what I could do if only it weren't so hard   Trust the stage and take over the podium and catch this crowd off-guard   And in the silence, it wouldn't bother me if the audience caught it's breath   I clear my throat and adjust the microphone and laugh myself to death      And I think sometimes it's dangerous   That we take ourselves so serious   But I think you're beautiful   I think your beautiful      With the life, comes the issues and everyone must obey   We wait for fate to come and greet us and walk us through our day       And I think sometimes it's dangerous   That we take ourselves so serious   But I think you're beautiful   I think your beautiful      For every department store clerk who's ever followed me to make sure that I    don't steal   And every folk singer that's gawked at the sight of me   Reality is my real    I think your beautiful      Wake me up after the aftermath, but don't tell me what's going on   Cause sometimes I would rather sleep than give into my alarm      And I think sometimes it's dangerous   That we take ourselves so serious   But I think you're beautiful   I think your beautiful      Beau beau beau beau BEAUTIFUL
