West Side Story (Original Broadway Cast): Act II: I Feel Pretty

Act II: I Feel Pretty - Carol Lawrence/Carmen Gutierrez/Marilyn Cooper/Elizabeth Taylor/West Side Story Original Broadway Cast

I feel pretty

Oh so pretty

I feel pretty and witty and gay

And I pity

Any girl who isn't me tonight

I feel charming

Oh so charming

It's alarming how

Charming I feel

And so pretty

That I hardly can

Believe I'm real

See the pretty girl in

That mirror there

Who can that

Attractive girl be

Such a pretty face

Such a pretty dress

Such a pretty smile

Such a pretty me

I feel stunning

And entrancing

Feel like running

And dancing for joy

For I'm loved

By a pretty wonderful boy

Have you met my

Good friend Maria

The craziest girl on the block

You'll know her the

Minute you see her

She's the one who is

In an advanced state of shock

She thinks she's in love

She thinks she's in Spain

She isn't in love

She's merely insane

It must be the heat

Or some rare disease

Or too much to eat

Or maybe it's fleas

Keep away from her

Send for Chino

This is not the Maria we know

Modest and pure

Polite and refined

Well-bred and mature

And out of her mind

Miss America Miss

America speech

I feel pretty

Oh so pretty

That the city should

Give me its key

A committee

Should be organized

To honour me

I feel dizzy

I feel sunny

I feel fizzy and funny and fine

And so pretty

Miss America can just resign

See the pretty girl in

That mirror there

(What mirror where )

Who can that

Attractive girl be

(Which what where whom )

Such a pretty face

Such a pretty dress

Such a pretty smile

Such a pretty me

I feel stunning

And entrancing

Feel like running and

Dancing for joy

For I'm loved

By a pretty wonderful boy
