  Ain't it fierce to be so beautiful, beautiful,
  So rarin' tearin' beautiful?
  Ain't it fierce to be so beautiful, beautiful,
  So rarin' tearin' beautiful?
  
  I ain't got no peace of mind
  Everybody is so awfully kind
  Outside of my door, they stand, stand,
  Waiting for my heart and hand
  Outside of my door, they stand, stand,
  Waiting for my heart and hand
  
  Almost every single hour
  Someone is sure to send me flowers
  Ain't it fierce to be so beautiful, beautiful?
  Ain't it fierce to be so beautiful?
  
  Ain't it fierce to be so brainy, brainy,
  So rarin' tearin' brainy?
  Ain't it fierce to be so brainy, brainy,
  Ain't it fierce to be so brainy?
  
  I ain't got no peace of mind
  The teachers are so awfully kind
  Outside of their doors, they stand, stand
  Waiting there to shake my hand
  Outside of their doors, they stand, stand
  Waiting there to shake my hand
  
  Almost every single day
  Someone is sure to give me an "A"
  Ain't it fierce to be so brainy, brainy?
  Ain't it fierce to be so brainy?
  
  Ain't it fierce to be so truthful, truthful?
  Ain't it fierce to be so truthful?
  
  Everyone says my honesty
  Is only matched by my modesty
  
  Oh, ain't it fierce to be so truthful, truthful?
  Ain't it fierce to be so truthful?
  Ain't it fierce to be so truthful, truthful?
  Ain't it fierce to be beautiful, brainy, and truthful?  less
