I'll run the race
Knowing that I won't place
'Cause as soon as they yell go
I'll be the first to know that

Beautiful hair
And mysterious stares
Won't get me to first place
'Cause you're running ahead
And I'm starting to dread
Racing you in the first place

And I don't wanna be
Just a pretty face
A polished medal in your trophy case
I don't wanna be just a pretty face
Don't pity me and hand me
First place

I'll keep a space
Between us I'll leave no traces
You're blazing past me now
You already run this town

Erase the search history
Can't force what's not meant to be
Might only want you 'cause you're fast
Not sure that this is gonna last but

Beautiful hair
And mysterious stares
Won't get me to first place
'Cause you're running ahead
And I'm starting to dread
Racing you in the first place

And I don't wanna be
Just a pretty face
A polished medal in your trophy case
Oh, oh
I don't wanna be
Just a pretty face
Don't pity me and hand me
First place

You will cross the finish line
While you're crossing through my mind
But I'll stay on the sidelines
I'm already too far behind you

And I don't wanna be
Just a pretty face, oh
A polished medal in your trophy case
I don't wanna be just a pretty face
Don't pity me and hand me oh, oh
I don't wanna be just a pretty face
A polished medal in your trophy case oh, oh
I don't wanna be just a pretty face
Don't pity me and hand me
First place
