Pretty Things
Sasha · Other Songs - Sasha
Never gonna get my loving, life's not what it seems
Claiming she's from hollywood
But she's a southern girl
Trying to make a living
In a mad and crazy world
Money?s all that matters
In her narrow mind
Once you start to talk to her
She's of the simple kind
Oh you pretty thing - you're superficial
Oh you pretty thing - born artificial
Wake up, break up, step out of your dream
Never gonna get my loving, life's not what it seems
You better wake up, break up, got to get a life
Never gonna get my loving, ?cause you can't make it right
Waiting in the hotel lobby
Hanging at the bar
Checking out the v. i. p.?s
Pretending she's a star
Girl, you're looking good to me
But looks ain't everything
You won't get my sympathy
Nor my diamond ring
Oh you pretty thing - you're superficial
Oh you pretty thing - born artificial
Oh you pretty thing - you're superficial
Oh you pretty thing - born artificial
