I feel pretty, 00:04

Oh, so pretty, 00:06

I feel pretty and witty and gay 00:08

And I pity 00:12

Any girl who isn't me tonight. 00:13

I feel charming, Oh, so charming 00:17

It's alarming how charming I feel 00:21

And so pretty That I hardly can believe I'm real. 00:24

See the pretty girl in that mirror there: 00:30

Who can that attractive girl be? 00:34

Such a pretty face, such a pretty dress, such a pretty smile, such a pretty me! 00:36

I feel stunning And entrancing, 00:42

Feel like running and dancing for joy, 00:46

For I'm loved By a pretty, wonderful boy! 00:49

Have you met my good friend Maria, The craziest girl on the block? 00:59

You'll know her the minute you see her 01:05

She's the one who is in an advanced state of shock. 01:08

She thinks she's in love. She thinks she's in Spain. 01:12

She isn't in love, She's merely insane. 01:16

It must be the heat or some rare disease 01:20

Or too much to eat or maybe it's fleas. 01:24

Keep away from her, send for Chino 01:27

This is not the Maria we know 01:31

Modest and pure, polite and refined 01:35

Well-bred and mature and out of her mind! 01:37

I feel pretty. Oh, so pretty 01:51

That the city should give me its key. 01:55

A committee Should be organized to honor me. 01:58

I feel dizzy, I feel sunny, I feel fizzy and funny and fine, 02:04

And so pretty, Miss America can just resign! 02:11

See the pretty girl in that mirror there 02:17

What mirror where? 02:20

Who can that attractive girl be? 02:21

Which? What? Where? Whom? 02:23

Such a pretty face, Such a pretty dress, Such a pretty smile, Such a pretty me 02:25

I feel stunning and entrancing, 02:30

Feel like running and dancing for joy 02:34

For I'm loved By a pretty wonderful boy! 02:36

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I feel pretty,

Oh, so pretty,

I feel pretty and witty and gay

And I pity

Any girl who isn't me tonight.

I feel charming, Oh, so charming

It's alarming how charming I feel

And so pretty That I hardly can believe I'm real.

See the pretty girl in that mirror there:

Who can that attractive girl be?

Such a pretty face, such a pretty dress, such a pretty smile, such a pretty me!

I feel stunning And entrancing,

Feel like running and dancing for joy,

For I'm loved By a pretty, wonderful boy!

Have you met my good friend Maria, The craziest girl on the block?

You'll know her the minute you see her

She's the one who is in an advanced state of shock.

She thinks she's in love. She thinks she's in Spain.

She isn't in love, She's merely insane.

It must be the heat or some rare disease

Or too much to eat or maybe it's fleas.

Keep away from her, send for Chino

This is not the Maria we know

Modest and pure, polite and refined

Well-bred and mature and out of her mind!

I feel pretty. Oh, so pretty

That the city should give me its key.

A committee Should be organized to honor me.

I feel dizzy, I feel sunny, I feel fizzy and funny and fine,

And so pretty, Miss America can just resign!

See the pretty girl in that mirror there

What mirror where?

Who can that attractive girl be?

Which? What? Where? Whom?

Such a pretty face, Such a pretty dress, Such a pretty smile, Such a pretty me

I feel stunning and entrancing,

Feel like running and dancing for joy

For I'm loved By a pretty wonderful boy!
