I Am the Cute One
Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am the cute one
It's obvious
There's no comparing
The two of us

I'm not to blame
The facts are plain
I've got the looks
I've got the brains
And I am the cute one
She's just my sister

I am the cute one
Everyone knows
I've got the profile
She's got the nose

She is the older
I am the younger
So after all is it any wonder?
I am the cute one
She's just my sister

People say we're two peas in a pod
And that we look like each other
There's something that they forgot
I am the cute one
She's just my sister

(la la la)

I'm not to blame
The facts are plain
I've got the looks
I've got the brains
And I am the cute one
She's just my sister

People say we're two peas in a pod
And that we look like each other
There's something that they forgot
We're not the same whatever you say
I love her and she is OK

But I am the cute one
She's just my sister

You wish
I am the cute one
She's just my sister

Untrue
I am the cute one
She's just my sister

I'm sorry




I am the cute one
She's just my sister

Overall Meaning

The song I Am the Cute One by Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen is a playful and lighthearted track that centers around the idea that the singer, one of the Olsen twins, is the more attractive and intelligent one of the duo. The lyrics convey a sense of playful rivalry between the two sisters, with the singer smugly stating that she is "the cute one" and that there's no comparing the two of them. The song reinforces the idea that appearances are important, while at the same time acknowledging the unbreakable bond between sisters.


The first verse establishes the singer's superiority over her sister, stating that she has the looks and brains while her sister does not. She then repeats that she is "the cute one" and that her sister is just her sibling. In the second verse, she claims that everyone knows she's the cute one, and points out the physical differences between herself and her sister. She then goes on to establish herself as the younger sister, implying that she is the more desirable sibling. The bridge of the song points out that while people say they look alike, the singer is still the more attractive of the two. The final verse concludes with the singer playfully bickering with her sister before once again asserting that she is the cute one.


Overall, the song is a playful and fun exploration of sibling rivalry and the differences between siblings. It reinforces society's emphasis on physical beauty and appearance, but also subtly acknowledges the deeper bond of sisterhood.
