You tear the pictures of the girls
they want you to try to be
Your hair's too thin, the colour's wrong
It doesn't suit you really
Sit near the back, try to act hard
Who needs acceptance anyway
The tears you shed late after dark
Don't start to lift the crushing weight
Oh Angelene
You seem perfect to me
But you try
But you hurt
And fashion left you out
And you try
but you hurt
'cos fashion's left you out
Left you out
(it left you out)
Hearing the words, hushed little birds
All about not for you
You can't believe your stomach turns
after the practice you've been through
Your mirror lies, your swollen eyes
can only see what they see
But listen girl, your chosen world
Is all that we'll be needing
It's all we'll be needing
Oh Angelene
You seem perfect to me
But you try
And you hurt
And fashion left you out
And you try
but you hurt
And fashion's left you out
Left you out
It's left you out
Crushing weight
Oh Angelene
You seem so perfect to me
But you try
and you hurt
And fashion left you out
And you try
and you hurt
'cos fashion's left you out
And you lie
in the dirt
While they push you down
And you try
But you've learned
And fashion's left you out
Left you out
It's left you out
The tears you shed late after dark
Don't start to lift the crushing weight
You're near the back, you're acting hard
Who needs acceptance anyway
Who needs acceptance anyway
