A mink wears a mink coat the whole year around Even when he is not going to town A skunk has a stripped coat it's pretty he thinks Although we all know he stinks.
An elephant has hide as hard as a rock A zebra has stripes and a leopard has spots Sometimes I'm sad when I look at my hide But I'd rather feel pretty inside.
I like to feel pretty inside don't you I like being kind and I like being true I like to like me when I close my eyes I like to feel pretty inside oh I like to feel pretty inside.

If a mink wore a stripped coat the whole year around If he had to wear it when he went to town If a skunk had a red coat and smell like a rose Do you think he'd turn up his nose.
If elephants have fur as likely as not A leopard would have stripes and a zebra have spots I guess it would be great to have a new hide But I'd rather feel pretty inside.
I like to feel pretty inside don't you I like being kind and I like being true I like to like me when I close my eyes I like to feel pretty inside oh I like to feel pretty inside.
I like to feel pretty inside don't you I like being kind and I like being true I like to like me when I close my eyes I like to feel pretty inside oh I like to feel pretty inside...
