twee
In a pop music context, the term "twee" was originally used by British music journalists in the mid- to late 1980s as an abusive term for Indie Pop. It has since been 'reclaimed' by some indie pop fans and used in a neutral sense.
Musically its key characteristics are jangling guitars, a love of sixties pop and often fey, innocent lyrics. It is not at all uncommon to find hand claps, rubber bands or ukuleles in the background of these songs.
The influences are acts such as Girls At Our Best, The Monochrome Set & The Undertones.

Pretty Girl
Clairo Lyrics
Polaroid of you dancin' in my room
I want to remember, I think it was about noon
It's getting harder to understand, to understand
How you felt in my hands, in my hands
And I could be a pretty girl
I'll wear a skirt for you
And I could be a pretty girl
Shut up when you want me to
And I could be a pretty girl
Won't ever make you blue
And I could be a pretty girl
I'll lose myself in you
I was so blinded by you, now I cry
Just thinkin' 'bout the fool that I was, I was such a fool
I'm alone now but it's better for me
I don't need all your negativity
And I could be a pretty girl
I'll wear a skirt for you
And I could be a pretty girl
Shut up when you want me to
And I could be a pretty girl
I'll never make you blue
And I could be a pretty girl
I'll lose myself in you
