Beautifull

Commentary: this song was inspired by award winning playwright Jill Jaysen who insisted I watch a video on YouTube called the “Dove Campaign for Real Beauty”. So I did. This song will hopefully make it’s way into one of Jill Jaysen’s awesome plays…Obviously it should be sung by a young woman. But Hey! I’m beautifull too!

The Dove video is below in case you’re one of the 3 people left on planet Earth who haven’t seen it.

Beautifull (a.k.a “The Beautifull Song”)

Song #402  | 10/17/09

I saw this video on you tube
They took a normal looking young woman.
With the help of a lot of makeup (and Photoshop)
Turned her into a model of perfection
And it got my attention
And I thought to my self…
If the people I’m supposed to look like don’t even look like
what they’ve been made up to look like….
Is any one real?
And what’s the deal?

Refrain:
What if I believe I am
Beautifull?
Exactly as I am?
Beautifull

B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L.L. Beautifull
B
e Educated Assertive Understanding Tough Intelligent Fun Unique Loving Loved (just the way I am)
Beautifull

Refrain:

Be Everything Amazing Unlimited Totally Into Freedom Universal Liberty for Life:
Beautifull

Refrain:

So I turned off the computer
I went to the mirror
(mirror, mirror, on the wall…)
And I looked at myself.
And I said, “self,
You… are… BEAUTIFULL!

Refrain #2:

I believe I am
Beautifull
Exactly as I am
Beautifull
(full of beauty!)
I believe I am
Beautifull!
Exactly as I am
Beautifull
