Only Pretty, What A Pity Lyrics - Everything Playing - Lovin Spoonful

Eyes to look at, not to see through 

She never could see truth for lies 

With a smile she'd win 'em over 

Her face a trick to take a prize 

 

Tickled pink 

The mid-aged dandy 

Sold his horse to buy her all 

The icing for her face like candy 

Hung up the mirrors wall-to-wall 

 

Married life was short but funny 

With long lost cousins dropping by 

Later on her alimony 

Paid for young men's gentle sighs 

 

By the window hangs a mirror 

Where she hides her sagging chin 

Now sadly as she crouches nearer 

Never seeing past her skin 

 

Mommy said 

When you were younger 

The face you made would stay that way 

That's all true and if you doubt it 

Reflect upon yourself today 

 

Everyone except the baby 

Answers for the face they wear 

It's the mast of your contentment 

Or the mask of your despair 

 

Only Pretty, what a pity 

Only Pretty, what a pity 

Only Pretty, what a pity
