Big Girl You Are Beautiful
MIKA Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Walks in to the room
Feels like a big balloon
Big girl you are beautiful
Diet Coke and a pizza please
Diet Coke, I'm on my knees
You take your skinny girl
I feel like I'm gonna die
'Cause a real woman
Needs a real man, here's why
You take your girl
And multiply her by four
Now a whole lot of woman
Needs a whole lot more
Get yourself to the butterfly lounge
Find yourself a big lady
Big boy, come on around
And there we're gonna do baby
No need to fantasize
Since the words are my praises
A watering hole with the girls around
And curves in all the right places
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Walks in to the room
Feels like a big balloon
I said, "Hey girls, you are beautiful"
Diet Coke and a pizza please
Diet Coke, I'm on my knees
Screaming, "Big girl, you are beautiful"
You take your girl
And multiply her by four
Now a whole lot of woman
Needs a whole lot more
Get yourself to the butterfly lounge
Find yourself a big lady
Big boy, come on around
And there we're gonna do baby
No need to fantasize
Since the words are my praises
A watering hole with the girls around
And curves in all the right places
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Get yourself to the butterfly lounge
Find yourself a big lady
Big boy, come on around
And there we're gonna do baby
No need to fantasize
Since the words are my praises
A watering hole with the girls around
And curves in all the right places
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Oh, you are beautiful
Get yourself to the butterfly lounge
Find yourself a big lady
Big boy, come on around
And there we're gonna do baby
No need to fantasize
Since the words are my praises
A watering hole with the girls around
And curves in all the right places
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Oh, you are beautiful
Get yourself to the butterfly lounge

The song "Big Girl You Are Beautiful" by Mika aims to celebrate plus-sized women and debunk the societal standards of beauty wherein being skinny equates to beauty. The first verse describes the feeling of a big girl walking into a room and how it may feel uncomfortable to them, hence the comparison to a big balloon. However, the chorus emphasizes that despite their size, they are beautiful. The second verse talks about the irony of ordering a Diet Coke and pizza together, where the Diet Coke is seen as a justification of indulging in a "wrong" food choice. The song then goes on to juxtapose a "real" woman to a skinny girl, implying that only a real man can handle a "whole lot of woman" who needs "a whole lot more." The bridge part encourages big girls to go to the butterfly lounge and find themselves a big boy who appreciates curves in all the right places.
Overall, the song aims to empower women by promoting body positivity and confidence, particularly to those who have been shamed for their weight. It sends the message that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes and that big girls deserve to feel beautiful and loved just as much as anyone else.
Line by Line Meaning
Big girl, you are beautiful
This song celebrates the beauty of big girls and encourages them to embrace their size.
Walks in to the room
Feels like a big balloon
Big girl you are beautiful
Even if you feel self-conscious about your size, you are still beautiful.
Diet Coke and a pizza please
Diet Coke, I'm on my knees
Screaming, "Big girl, you are beautiful"
Big girls can eat whatever they want and still be beautiful. Don't let anyone shame you for your food choices.
You take your skinny girl
I feel like I'm gonna die
'Cause a real woman
Needs a real man, here's why
Real women have curves and need a man who appreciates them for who they are, not for conforming to societal beauty standards.
You take your girl
And multiply her by four
Now a whole lot of woman
Needs a whole lot more
Big girls have a lot to offer and should be valued for their size, not compared or reduced to smaller women.
Get yourself to the butterfly lounge
Find yourself a big lady
Big boy, come on around
And there we're gonna do baby
Big girls should embrace their size and find other people who appreciate them for who they are, without trying to change them.
No need to fantasize
Since the words are my praises
A watering hole with the girls around
And curves in all the right places
Big girls are desirable and should be praised for their curves. They shouldn't be objects of fantasy or fetishization.
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls should be celebrated and praised for their beauty, just like any other woman.

Laura Williams I see the butterfly Lounge has been closed for a couple of years now. Good memories of nice and fun people. Saw the page of when the club owner miss Kathleen divine met Mika at an Avalon concert he did in Los Angeles back when his album came out:
My night with MIKA
BFLMikaShow05.jpg (99205 bytes)
I have so much to tell you all, I had an unforgettable experience that I want to share with you!
This experience was life changing for me and I hope for all of you!
Monique, Jenn and I met with MIKA at his Record release party Monday night in Hollywood !
On my way in I met Danny Bonaduce and yes he is built and hot! There was a huge line outside and we were sent in early as VIP’s! There I met Perez Hilton and we talked for quite a while. I am a huge fan; he was very easy to talk with and told me how he loved our song, “Big Girl”! Then in walked Andy Dick who approached Perez and we all chatted. The press hit us and cameras were flashing like crazy! At this point I was thinking OMG this is crazy! Here I am standing with 2 stars and all I can see are flashes lol
MIKA came out and performed 4 songs and I have to tell you all he sounds excellent live! I have been to tons of concerts and have been let down many times by live performances but not this night! After the show the crowd was sent outside I was able to meet with MIKA. I went to shake his hand and found that instead we were hugging.
He grabbed both of my shoulders and said to me, “I wrote you this song; Big Girl (you are beautiful) this is your song!”
We talked about the BBC special I had done years ago with Victoria Wood. He told me how he was watching the show and we both agreed that in the beginning of the show it seemed as though they were talking about how being overweight was something to be ashamed of. Then he said to me when they got to the part where The Butterfly Lounge was featured how the show took a turn and sent a message to everyone saying, “Love yourself for who you are!” He told me he was so inspired that he started writing our song right then! At this point the media was all over MIKA and I, you never would believe how blinded one could get from so many flashes. It was a moment I will never forget; He gave me tons of signed posters and a few full CD’s for the nightclub. He told me he is there for us! I have to say MIKA has a huge heart and it as genuine as they come! He is absolutely adorable, just an FYI for those of you who want too know. He told me that as soon as his schedule opens up that he will be personally visiting our nightclub! (Looks like it will be sometime in April) He also asked for our logo and is having shirts printed out and will be wearing them very soon!!!
I then spoke with his mother who said to me; “Thank you for creating such a wonderful nightclub and how pleased she was that MIKA was able to write such a beautiful song!” We took a few photos together and she told me that her and MIKA will be visiting our nightclub very soon. There is a picture of us on the Butterfly Lounge website.
All in all it was an AWESOME night for us all, as well as The Size Acceptance Community!
Now there is a very positive song out there BIG GIRLS YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!!! (As stated in the song)
His new record; “Life in Cartoon Motion” is now available in the US and he is hitting the circuit via television and radio!
Much love to you all,
Kathleen

@Satan.Himself
@Oli Weissberg Yes!
@mariahdeher8531
Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes
@ninamartens650
Yesss <33
@HyuugaCharlie
mika manages to sing and pose with large ladies and not come across as sexist, pervy or even slightly judgemental. must be a gift
@mandlin4602
He’s gay, and his genuine concern intent is to liberate women. Most the time when straight men do it it’s to manipulate insecure women into sex.
The video and song is very feminine. Femininity is celebrated and not monopolised. That’s the difference.
The glamorous ladies here are presented as powerful and brave people he’s proud to be around. Not his belongings.
@littlewolfpovs9164
He is just so fucking wholesome and btw I don't think he was out as gay yet when this song was released. Mika just has a wholesome good guy vibe, can't explain it anyway else
@janinealexander6132
He hadn't came out at the time. I still have a huge crush on him even though I'm not his 'type'. It's his energy and positivity that's magnetic!
