Ugly Girl is one of my favourite songs by 100 monkeys, throughout the song it describes the way women and girls in this day and age act in a bid to be "beautiful" , Does anyone really know the true meaning of beauty is it the stick thin catwalk model that are flaunted in our face by the media or is it the people who are comfortable in their own skin that wont change the way they look for anyone but themselves.
I really like the album cover for ugly girl crying a black tear whilst looking through a hole burnt into a piece of paper in black and white its a really strong image.
song lyrics :
1, 2, 3, 4
She was young But she liked to act younger than she was She was dumb But she liked to act more dumb than she was For such a young,dumb impetuous thing Says if she goes then she'll go smiling And of course, she'll leave a beautiful corpse
The problem with you, the problem with this world (x3) It's an ugly world and you're, you're an ugly girl
Hey
Give it, give it
She wants to be Grace Kelly But she has no grace She's always falling down on her pretty painted face Well men call her pretty Because she's pretty funny She's always after the millionaire's money But she don't care for anyone else but herself She don't care for anyone else but herself
The problem with you, the problem with this world It's and ugly world and you're an ugly girl (x2) The problem with you's the problem with this world(x3) It's an ugly world and you're, you're an ugly girl [ FUNKY!
She's the highbrow girl in the low cut top A society girl, she don't know how to stop
Well men call her pretty Because she is pretty fun She always makes sure to leave the top buttons undone
You're falling cuz you Are falling cuz you You're falling cuz you You're falling yes you Are falling cuz you Are falling yes you You're falling (x3)
She's an ugly girl (x8)
She's a highbrow girl in a low cut top A society girl, she don't know how to stop

my favourite line in the song is "The problem with you, the problem with this world ,It's an ugly world and you're, you're an ugly girl" to me this means that the world is what makes ugly we are all born equal and beautiful and its the world and the media that deprives us of our beauty.
