Jewel - 501 Beauty Queen lyrics

She's still as thin as a beanpole,

with a little less class, but a little more style

And she spends all her time trying not to hear you

What she doesn't want to know

Don't wanna know

And there's Kellogg's in the cupboard

She takes a heart down from off the shelf

She passes by the mirror

She doesn't like to look at herself

Cause she'd rather lose touch with reality

than lose her fantasy

Her fantasy

And her smile is as faded as a used pair of jeans

And her heart is frayed around the edges

she's comin' undone at the seams

And it's her last chance to make a statement

It's her last (note/No I've received?)

She's a 501 beauty queen

And there's flowers on the table

she's lovely, she's lovely not

But circles only make the hunger grow

so she goes out a lot

And she's out there just a runnin' around

Trying to make up some lost time

Lost time

And she sits down for a social call

Like a princess she puffs on a cigarette

Her beauty is all threadbare now

But she's never gonna let them forget

Casue my how she looked smashing in her gold lame tank top

With the fancy beadwork on fron

The beadwork's on front

But her smile is as faded as a used pair of jeans

And her heart is frayed around the edges

She's comin' undone at the seams

And it's her last chance to make a statement

It's her last (note/No I've recieved/I perceive?)

She's a 501 beauty queen

And a voice chimes like a bell in the night

that just don't know when to quit

She used to have more options

Now she wishes that she'd already picked

And she wishes she couldn't remember

all those things she'll never forget

Never forget.

And the lines they all go deeper than the days of her youth

She flirts and lies and always denies what to her is no longer of any

use But it's not because she hates what she doesn't understand

She just don't understand

And her fire? is as faded as a used pair of jeans

And her heart is frayed around the edges

She's comin' undone at the seams

And it's her last chance to make a statement

It's her last (note/No? I've receive?/at the seat?)

She's a 501 beauty queen
