Il testo della Temporary beauty

You have to do your best to come up to par
From straight off the production line like a car
Till everything you put on is a put-on
And you don't know whose face you're gazing upon

Could be anyone you're sending out there tonight
It isn't any wonder all the lights are too bright?

And you need temporary beauty
And hope to god that it doesn't rain
You need temporary beauty
Even though it might be love in vain, vain, vain, vain

The world is full of little people like you
They have to read a book to learn what to do
They hang around in second hand stores for clothes
And every kind of pressure steps on their toes

Love doesn't fall out of a magazine
You mustn't always believe what you see

And baby, you need temporary beauty
And hope to god that it doesn't rain
You need temporary beauty
Even though it might be love in vain

Ah temporary beauty
Ah temporary beauty
Ah temporary beauty

You might be the sweetest little girl in your heart
But still the world ignores that and tears you apart
You think of the parties you'll never attend
You dream of someone who's more than a friend

Love doesn't jump out of a magazine
You mustn't always believe what you see

And baby, you need temporary beauty
And hope to god that it doesn't rain
You need temporary beauty
Even though it might be love
Even though it might be love
Even though it might be love in vain, vain, vain, vain
Vain, vain, vain, vain
