You got your tongue peirced once
And you say you've got another
That you can't show anyone unless it's undercovers
But you're running all around
Showing everyone your new tattoo

You got an A in class
And you hope no one would notice
You're the smartest kid in school
And it makes you self-conscious
And your loser boyfriend's smoking out in the boys' room
I wish somone would tell you

(chorus)
You're a star the way you are
You know you're not fooling anyone
No you've got the eyes of an angel
Don't try to change, yeah
Everybody's got their scars
(Everybody's got their scars)
No matter what they tell ya
You're beautiful the way you are

And your mama's so happy
You became a cheerleader
Homecoming queen just like your older sister
'Til you died your hair pink an'
They said what where you drinkin'
And it never did sink in
It don't matter what they think 'cuz

(chorus)
You're a star the way you are
You know you're not fooling anyone
No you've got the eyes of an angel
Don't try to change, yeah
Everybody's got their scars
(Everybody's got their scars)
Never mind how ugly they are
No matter what they tell ya
You're beautiful the way you are

Oh the way you are
(oh the way you are)
Oh the way you are
(oh the way you are)
Oh the way you are
(oh the way you are) yeah

(chorus)
You're a star the way you are
You know you're not fooling anyone
No you've got the eyes of an angel
Don't try to change, yeah
Everybody's got their scars
(Everybody's got their scars)
No matter what they tell ya
You're beautiful the way you are
