I really like this song, probably my favorite on this album. I think that this song has to do with a guy who sort of has a thing for this girl, but he knows that there are so many things wrong with her on the outisde it's going to be close to impossible to get to the inside. And maybe he keeps trying to show her that she really is more than just (idk, just a pretty face, shallow, etc.)

Great song, wonderful, whimsical lyrics, and just another great BNL song.
