I've got a little secret
   I hope you'll understand me
   Just a little secret
   I'll be as quick as I can be
  
   I feel like I've been talking to a wall
   And no-one's there to comfort me at all
   When I've found out
   You signed the line
   That's for me to reconcile
  
   I wish I could be pretty like my friends
   They all got perfect faces
   I wish I could be pretty like my friends
   All in silk and laces
  
   I spoke to Mr Clement
   He said, "I'll do what I can do"
   After he had finished
   He laughed," There's nothing I can do
  
   'Til I've found out
   You signed the line
   That's for me to reconcile
  
   I wish I could be pretty like my friends
   They all got perfect faces
   I wish I could be pretty like my friends
   All in silk and laces
