Grown So Ugly

I got up this morning

Put on my shoes

Tied my shoes

Went to the mirrorBut I combed my hair

I made a move

Know what to do

Tried to break and runBaby, this ain't me, baby, this ain't me

Grown so ugly, grown so ugly

Don't even know myself

Don't even know myselfLeft Angola, 1964

Walking down the street

Knock upon my baby's door, now

My baby come out and ask me who I amI say, honey

Honey, don't you know your man?

She said "my man been gone since 1942

I tell you, Mr. Ugly, he didn't look like you"
