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

Lyrics

I feel pretty
 Oh so pretty
 I feel pretty and witty and bright
 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 that 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
 I feel pretty
 Oh, so pretty
 That the city should give me its key
 A committee
 Should be organized to honor me
 La la la la la la la la la la
 I feel dizzy
 I feel sunny
 I feel fuzzy and funny and fine
 And so pretty
 Miss America can just resign
 La la la la la la la la la la
 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
