Pretty
Terror Jr Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Took a pill for my doubts
Breathe in, breathe out
Nothing in my eyes, so I smile with my mouth
Ooh, she's insecure
But she's got money in her pores
Ooh, we'll never find a cure
Champagne in my veins
Bleach soaking into my brain
This city's making me crazy
But they say pretty is pain (Is pain)
Gold chains and blood stains
Good girls cover their shame
It's really making me crazy (Crazy)
But they say pretty is pain (Is pain)
If I took another shot
Would you tell me that I'm hot?
I'm lookin' at myself over my shoulder
Will anybody love me when I'm older?
Ooh, she's insecure
But she's got money in her pores
Ooh, we'll never find a cure
Why should we pretend anymore?
Champagne in my veins (Champagne)
Bleach soaking into my brain (My brain)
This city's making me crazy (Crazy)
But they say pretty is pain (Is pain)
Gold chains and blood stains (Blood stains)
Good girls cover their shame (Their shame)
It's really making me crazy (Crazy)
But they say pretty is pain (Is pain)
Am I pretty? (Ooh)
I feel so shitty (O-o-ooh)
Am I pretty? (Ooh)
I feel so dirty (O-o-ooh)
Ooh, she's insecure
But she's got money in her pores
Ooh, we'll never find a cure
Why should we pretend anymore?
Champagne in my veins (Champagne)
Bleach soaking into my brain (My brain)
This city's making me crazy (Crazy)
But they say pretty is pain (Is pain)
Gold chains and blood stains (Blood stains)
Good girls cover their shame (Their shame)
It's really making me crazy (Crazy)
But they say pretty is pain (Is pain)
Am I pretty? (Ooh)
I feel so shitty (O-o-ooh)
Am I pretty? (Ooh)
I feel so dirty (O-o-ooh)
Champagne in my veins
Bleach soaking into my brain
The city is making me crazy
But they say pretty is pain
The song "Pretty" by Terror Jr is a commentary on society's obsession with beauty and the standards that come with it. The lyrics express the pressure individuals face to fit into society's definition of beauty, which often leads to insecurity and feelings of inadequacy. The line "Champagne in my veins, bleach soaking into my brain" highlights the idea of using substances to numb the pain and maintain a façade of perfection. The chorus asks the question "Am I pretty?" and expresses the internal struggle between wanting to conform to societal beauty standards and feeling uncomfortable with the pressure to do so.
The verse "Gold chains and blood stains, good girls cover their shame" suggests the idea that women are objectified and reduced to objects that are used for pleasure. The lyrics also touch on how women are expected to hide their flaws and imperfections, and the idea that pain is a necessary part of attaining beauty. The chorus repeats the idea that pretty is pain, which implies that the pursuit of beauty comes at a great cost.
Overall, "Pretty" provides a commentary on the unrealistic and harmful beauty standards in society and the internal battle that many individuals face as a result.
Line by Line Meaning
They don't wanna hear me shout
People don't want to listen to me speak passionately
Took a pill for my doubts
I consumed medication to ease my apprehension
Breathe in, breathe out
I inhale and exhale
Nothing in my eyes, so I smile with my mouth
I don't feel happy, but I pretend to be by smiling with my mouth
Ooh, she's insecure
She lacks confidence in herself
But she's got money in her pores
She's wealthy
Ooh, we'll never find a cure
There's no solution to her problem
Why should we pretend anymore?
Let's stop acting like everything is okay
Champagne in my veins
I feel like I'm rich
Bleach soaking into my brain
I'm being negatively influenced
This city's making me crazy
The city is driving me insane
But they say pretty is pain (Is pain)
People say being attractive requires sacrifice
Gold chains and blood stains
Being materialistic can have its consequences
Good girls cover their shame
People should conceal their imperfections
Am I pretty? (Ooh)
I feel so shitty (O-o-ooh)
Am I pretty? (Ooh)
I feel so dirty (O-o-ooh)
I question my appearance and self-worth
