Lady A
It Ain’t Pretty
[Verse 1]
Had a feeling, I was feeling alright
But it just happened to be Saturday night
I put my lipstick on a little too bright
Then I took a deep breath and started to drive
They'd let me in without a cover charge
Found my way to the back of the bar
Peeled the corners of a cocktail napkin
Watching everybody smilin', laughin'

[Chorus]
I just bought a drink
Downtown all alone
Searching through the names
Getting lost in my cell phone
It ain't pretty, it ain't pretty
When a heart breaks

[Verse 2]
Made my way to the bathroom mirror
Standing next to some girl spilling beer
She didn't notice I was drying my tears
Just look at me now, God, how'd I get here?

[Chorus 2]
'Cause I just kissed a boy
And I barely even knew his name
I let him take me by the hand
Hold me close while our old song played
It ain't pretty, it ain't pretty
When a heart breaks
[Verse 3]
I almost dialed your number
To remind you what you did
But I think it might be better
To just let this night end

[Chorus]
So, I just called a cab
Outside it's starting to rain
I got my high heels in my hand
Oh, I'm ready for the walk of shame
It ain't pretty, it ain't pretty
It ain't pretty
When a heart breaks

[Outro]
I just bought a drink, it ain't pretty
I just kissed a boy, it ain't pretty
I just called a cab
