In a world obsessed with surface beauty and social media validation, our leading lady is throwing down the gauntlet. The song's lyrics are a defiant rejection of societal expectations, particularly the pressure to conform to an idealized image of perfection. She's not interested in being anyone's 'dirty pretty'—a term that suggests exploitation and objectification. Instead, she revels in her individuality, asserting her right to be wild, free, and 'untamable.' This anthem for self-empowerment encourages listeners to resist external validation and embrace their unique identity. So next time you look into the mirror, remember: you're more than just your reflection—you're everything!
Dirty Pretty
Lyrics
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the fairest of them all?
Tell me I'm the perfect queen
Mirror mirror in my hand
Who's the fairest in the land?
Are they lining up for me?
Turn it on, tune it in, let it out
Turn it on, tune it in
Maybe I am not all that I've learned
Close your eyes, you twist and you turn
I know I am more than they see
I'm everything, everything is me
I won't be what you want me to be
Your picture perfect vanity
I don't want to be your dirty pretty
Mirror mirror unleash your tongue
Am I too old, am I too young?
Am I worthy of thy love?
Mirror mirror, you're so vain
Would you sell yourself for fame?
Are you the vulture, or are you the dove?
Turn it on, tune it in, let it out
Turn it on, tune it in
Maybe I am not all that I've learned
Close your eyes, you twist and you turn
I know I am more than they see
I'm everything, everything is me
I won't be what you want me to be
Your picture perfect vanity
I don't want to be your dirty pretty
I won't close my eyes, like you want me to
I am wild and free, I am untamable
I'm more than you'll ever see
More than just your dirty pretty
Maybe I am not all that I've learned
Close your eyes, you twist and you turn
I know I am more than they see
I'm everything, everything is me
I won't be what you want me to be
Your picture perfect vanity
I don't want to be your dirty pretty
