Left eye:

Find the reflection you see to be so damn unpretty

Find the reflection you see to be so damn unpretty



T-boz:

I wish i could tie you up in my shoes

Make you feel unpretty too

I was told i was beautiful

But what does that mean to you

Look into the mirror who's inside there

The one with the long hair

Same old me again today (yeah)



Chilli:

My outsides look cool

My insides are blue

Everytime i think i'm through

It's because of you

I've tried different ways

But it's all the same

At the end of the day

I have myself to blame

I'm just trippin'



Chorus:

T-boz & chilli:

You can buy your hair if it won't grow

You can fix your nose if he says so

You can buy all the make-up that mac can make

But if you can't look inside you

Find out who am i, too

Be in a position to make me feel so damn unpretty



Left eye:

Find the reflection you see to be so damn unpretty



T-boz & chilli:

Never insecure until i met you

Now i'm in stupid

I used to be so cute to me

Just a little bit skinny

Why do i look to all these things

To keep you happy

Maybe get rid of you

And then i'll get back to me (hey)



Chilli:

My outsides look cool

My insides are blue

Everytime i think i'm through

It's because of you

I've tried different ways

But it's all the same

At the end of the day

I have myself to blame

I can't believe i'm trippin'



Chorus



Chorus



Left eye:

As i reflect back on what i've used and abused

And detect that i need some clues to get through

To those that accused me of never being true

I'll lose if i play into this game and never know the rules

So how do i bring out the me nobody sees

The forest for the trees, how 'bout the woman behind the weave

The light from within this life is the only real remedy

Or find the reflection you see to be so damn unpretty



Tlc:

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh (oh)

Find the reflection you see to be so damn unpretty

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh (oh)

Find the reflection you see to be so damn unpretty



Chorus
