I quoted part of this song's lyrics in my blog, and I like it alot..it speaks to my ideas on physical beauty...

"Beautiful" by Joydrop ( words + music by Lehlohonolo Tony Rabalao)

If I was beautiful like you--oh the things I would do
Those not so blessed would be crying out murder--and I'd just laugh and get away with it to---Like you do

If I was beautiful like you--I would never be at fault
I'd walk in the rain between the raindrops
bringing traffic to a halt.

(chorus) But that would never be--that would never never be
"Cause I'm not beautiful like you
I'm beautiful like me

If I was beautiful like you--I'd be quick to assume
They'd do anything to please me why not
I see their reaction when you walk into the room

If I was beautiful like you I'd have so many friends
all fighting for my time to be next in line
So if I hurt one I wouldn't have to make amends

(chorus) But that would never be--that would never never be
"Cause I'm not beautiful like you
I'm beautiful like me

(Jesus of Suburbia--awesome song and a great album...also one of my faves)
