Lyrics

We are, we are, we are

L.A. on a Saturday night in the  
Sun   and they all come out
Lamborghinis and their   Hummers
The party's on,
So they're   downtown

Everybody's   for a come-up
And they wanna know what you're  
Me in the   with the one I love and
We're just tryna figure everything  

We don't   in well
'Cause we are just  
I could use some help
Getting out of this conversation, here
You look   , dear
So don't ask that question here
This is my only  
That we become

Beautiful people
Drop-top, designer  
Front   at fashion shows
"What d'you do?" and "Who d'you know?"
Inside the   of
Beautiful people
Champagne and rolled-up  
Pre-nups and   homes
Surrounded, but still  
Let's leave the  

That's not who we are
(We are, we are, we are)
We are not beautiful
Yeah, that's not who we are
(We are, we are, we are)
We are not beautiful

(L.A., mm)

Drove for hours last night
And we   it nowhere
(Nowhere, nowhere)
I see   in your eyes
When we're   there
(All night)
I'm not   by all the lights
And   cameras
'Cause with my   around you,
There's no need to  

We don't fit in well
We are just ourselves
I could use some help
Getting out of this conversation here
You look stunning, dear
So don't ask that question here
This is my only fear
That we become

Beautiful people
Drop-top, designer clothes
Front row at fashion shows
"What d'you do?" and "Who d'you know?"
Inside the world of
Beautiful people
Champagne and rolled-up notes
Pre-nups and broken homes
Surrounded, but still alone
Let's leave the party

That's not who we are
(We are, we are, we are)
We are not beautiful (yeah)
Yeah, that's not who we are
(We are, we are, we are)
We are not beautiful

(We are, we are, we are)
We are not beautiful
