LYRICS

You’re so pretty the way you are
You’re so pretty the way you are
And you have no reason to be so insolent to me
You’re so pretty the way you are

la-a la-a-a
You got to say it if you want to but you won’t change me
la-a la-a-a
You got to say it if you want to but you won’t change me

You’re so pretty the way you are
You’re so pretty the way you are
And you have no reason to be so insolent to me
You’re so pretty the way you are

la-a la-a-a
You got to say it if you want to but you won’t change me
la-a la-a-a
You got to say it if you want to but you won’t change me

NOTES

• A remix of the song was made for the American film “Prêt-à-Porter” (1994) and near the end of the song the lyrics are a bit different. Dolores repeats “la-a la-a-a / you got to say it if you want to but you won’t change me” more often than in the original version. This version was released on “The Complete Sessions 1991-1993”
