lyrics

Standing on Kew Junction corner
Waving your arms in the air
Dancing man I heard they call you
Makes me smile to see you there

You make the world beautiful
You make the world beautiful
You make the world beautiful
Just being who you are

Painted girl, ink on your body
Metal piercings over your face
Reading poetry down on Smith st
Some believe you’re out of place

But you make the world beautiful
You make the world beautiful
You make the world beautiful
Just being who you are

All alone you walk the school yard
Trying to find a place to hide
Not a friend to share your world with
So you keep yourself inside

But you make the world beautiful
Just being who you are

How many lonely people
How many sailing with the tide
How many scared to take a chance
Take a chance
Take a chance
To keep their dreams alive

And make the world beautiful
And make the world beautiful
and make the world beautiful
Just being who they are

You make the world beautiful
You make the world beautiful
You make the world beautiful
Just being who you are
