The Ugly Duckling

I am the ugly duckling

No one wants to meet.

I am the ugly duckling

No one wants to greet.

I am the ugly duckling

No one wants to see.

I am the ugly duckling

No one wants to be

I am the ugly duckling

I see the way you talk.

I am the ugly duckling

I hear the way you mock.

I am the ugly duckling

I see the way you stare.

I am the ugly duckling

I wish I didn’t care.

I am the ugly duckling,

Yes, I own a mirror.

I am the ugly duckling.

Wish I’d disappear.

I am the ugly duckling.

Why do I deal with the strife?

I am the ugly duckling.

And I can take my life.
