This is about how being popular isn't all that great.
He's so pretty
Pretty sent him to his grave
He's so dependent
Dependent on what other people think
He's so defiant
Defiant doesn't listen to anybody else
He's so pretty

She's so not pretty
Pretty is a quality that she'll never have
She's so independent
Independent doesn't have any friends
She's so hopeless
Hopeless doesn't have any hope left
She's so not pretty

He's so perfect
Perfect has no flaws
He's so sick
Sick of having everything
He's so tired
Tired of his whole perfect life
He's so pretty

She's so not perfect
Perfect is something she'll never be
She's so sick
Sick of all those perfect people
She's so tired
Tired of all the mistakes she's made
She's so not pretty

He's so pretty
Pretty sent him to his grave
She's so not pretty
Pretty is a quality that she'll never have
Sometimes not-pretty is better that you ever thought it would be
Because pretty sent him to his grave
Not-pretty has another life to save
