The American Tragedy Beneath Every Pearl Lyrics

Isn't she lovely?
Her hair is so pretty
But, they never told you about
the things like:
Her eating disorder
Or the clothes that she's stolen
Or the things she says
behind your back
Nobody's looking

Because, oh, she's so
Americana
She's such the premadonna
And everyone wants to believe
that somebody's perfect
And everybody wants to believe
that somebody's real

Beneath every pearl
there's a spec of dirt
waiting to be cleaned

And isn't he handsome?
The varsity captain
But they never told you about
the things like:
His criminal convictions
Or his date rape victims
Or his drinking problem
that makes his temper go foul

Because, oh, he's so
Americana
He's such the premadonna
And everyone wants to believe
that somebody's perfect
And everyone wants to believe
that somebody's real

Beneath every pearl
there's a spec of dirt
waiting to cleaned

In my head I've everything I want in you
