Below, you will find the lyrics for Phoebe by Audrey Hobert.
I went to New York
'Cause a man in a suit told me, 'You're gonna be a star'
I said, yeah, I know but it came out like, 'What, who, me?'
I took a walk on the beach
'Cause a guy doesn't like me back
Even though I'm gonna be a star
Guess I don't have it, guess I don't have it after all
But it's okay
'Cause my life is so exciting, every night is like a party
'Cause I bit the bullet, I'm finally watching Friends
What took me so long?
I say to no one
'Cause I'm alone all the time
But now I'm never lonely, not since I met Joey
But when I turn the lights off, Joey doesn't hold me
And in my darkest moment, I wonder if I met him out at a bar
If he'd see in me a perfect star
And want to take me home for that reason only
'Cause why else would you want me?
I think I've got a up face
And that thought used to haunt me
Till I fell in its sweet embrace
Now I don't sweat the acne
It's a bitch, but it goes away
And who cares if I'm pretty?
I feel like I'm Phoebe
I feel like it totally works
When the blue in my skirt doesn't work with the blue in my top
And if I tried to be her, it'd fall so flat, you'd feel badly
And most of these days, I feel the dull ache
But then I say 'stop,' and then I feel great
'Cause it could be worse, I know, I know
Know it in the worst way, we rehearsed this
Everything's okay
'Cause my life is so enticing, in the corner eating icing
It's a birthday party, these people aren't my friends
I'm thinking, 'So long,' amidst their 'deep talk'
'Bout someone they didn't invite
But I'd rather be lonely, counted out and homely
I know that he'll need me once he gets to know me
Wonder when I'll meet him, wonder if he's sitting there at a bar
And if he likes 'em avant-garde
That's just what they told me
'Cause why else would you want me?
I think I've got a up face
And that thought used to haunt me
Till I fell in its sweet embrace
Now I don't sweat the acne
It's a bitch, but it goes away
Who cares if I'm pretty?
I feel like I'm Phoebe
I feel like a-oh whoa
No, I'm good, thanks for asking
That'd be awesome but no worries if not
Best believe I can hack it
Check it out, I made it this far
Had to dig deep inside me
Till I found what I was looking for
It was right there inside me
It was beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful, beautiful
'Cause why else would you want me?
Beautiful, beautiful
I think I've got a up face
Gorgeous, amazing
And that thought used to haunt me
Beautiful, beautiful
Till I fell in its sweet embrace
Now I don't sweat the acne
It's a bitch, but it goes away
And who cares if I'm pretty?
I feel like I'm Phoebe
I feel like a-oh whoa
Who cares if I'm pretty
I feel like I'm Phoebe
I feel like a-oh whoa
