Do, do do, do re mi

Do, do fa, so la ti

Do, do do, do re mi

Do, do fa, so la ti


[Hook: Etta Bond (Labrinth)]

Say I'm beautiful, oh, say I'm beautiful

It ain't perfection when you've got no soul

Painkillers on the doctor's table

Won't you give me back the heart I know

Under the knife, under the knife

Carve my darkness into light

Yeah under the knife, under the knife

(Cut me open, I won't bleed anymore)


[Verse 1: Labrinth]

Our father, watch in heaven

I pray that one day I will be a better person

I need deliverance, but is it worth it?

Cause somewhere in the Bible says that we're all sinning

Now falling away from what I believe

The world is fake, and I'm with the sheep

So recreate me and make me pure

Maybe I'll be half the man I was before


[Hook]


[Verse 3: Labrinth]

Plastic surgeon, don't change my face

Until the man inside deserves the same praise

How beautiful is serenity?

I hope that's how the people will remember me

Cause it's coming quickly

And it's going fast

Build your house on concrete

And you're bound to last

Recreate me, make me whole

Under the knife, deep in my soul
