\"Miss America\" Lyrics:
I'm always making up my own time
I'm never where you want me to be
I'm always coloring outside of the lines
I'll never be the girl on TV
If I have my choices, then I'm choosing me
I'll never be Miss America
It's not the way I was born to be
I don't need a crown to make me a queen
I'll never be Miss America
It's like my mama she told me
“Girl, there's so many ways to be beautiful”
I'm always crashing into something
I'm always breaking up the party
I'm the one who's always singing louder than the rest louder than the others
Louder than the rest louder than the others
CHORUS
I am beautiful, beautiful
You are beautiful, beautiful
We are beautiful, beautiful
We are beautiful
I’ll never be Miss America
I’ll never be, I’ll never be
CHORUS
I am beautiful, beautiful
You are beautiful, beautiful
We are beautiful, beautiful
We are beautiful
