What Makes You Beautiful Lyrics – One Direction

You’re insecure,
Don’t know what for,
You’re turning heads when you walk through the door,
Don’t need make-up,
To cover up,
Being the way that you are is enough,Everyone else in the room can see it,
Everyone else but youBaby you light up my world like nobody else,
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed,
But when you smile at the ground it ain’t hard to tell,
You don’t know,
Oh, oh,
You don’t know you’re beautiful,
If only you saw what I can see,
You’d understand why I want you so desperately,
Right now I’m looking at you and I can’t believe,
You don’t know,
Oh, oh,
You don’t know you’re beautiful,
Oh, oh,
That’s what makes you beautiful

So c-come on
You got it wrong
To prove I’m right
I put it in a song
I don’t know why
You’re being shy
And turn away when I look into your eye-eye-eyesEveryone else in the room can see it
Everyone else but youBaby you light up my world like nobody else,
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed,
But when you smile at the ground it ain’t hard to tell,
You don’t know,
Oh oh,
You don’t know you’re beautiful,
If only you saw what I can see,
You’ll understand why I want you so desperately,
Right now I’m looking at you and I can’t believe,
You don’t know,
Oh oh,
You don’t know you’re beautiful,
Oh oh,

That’s what makes you beautifulNa na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na naBaby you light up my world like nobody else,
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed,
But when you smile at the ground it ain’t hard to tellYou don’t know,
Oh oh,
You don’t know you’re beautifulBaby you light up my world like nobody else,
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed,
But when you smile at the ground it ain’t hard to tell,
You don’t know,
Oh oh,
You don’t know you’re beautiful (Oh),
If only you saw what I can see,
You’ll understand why I want you so desperately (desperately),
Right now I’m looking at you and I can’t believe,
You don’t know,
Oh oh,
You don’t know you’re beautiful,
Oh oh,
You don’t know you’re beautiful,
Oh oh,

“What Makes You Beautiful” is a song by English-Irish boy band One Direction. It served as their debut single and lead single from their debut studio album, Up All Night (2011). Written by Savan Kotecha and producer Rami Yacoub, the song was released by Syco Records on 11 September 2011. The uptempo power-pop track features a prominent guitar-based chorus and riff. The middle eight consists of a “na na na” hook while the opening guitar riff interpolates The McCoys’s 1965 single “Hang on Sloopy”.

Story

The song was covered for American television series Glee by Kevin McHale, Chord Overstreet, Harry Shum, Jr., Samuel Larsen, and Damian McGinty in the episode titled “Prom-asaurus”. It was first aired on 8 May 2012 and is the 19th episode of the third season. Their characters Artie Abrams (McHale), Sam Evans (Overstreet), Mike Chang (Shum), Joe Hart (Larsen), and Rory Flanagan (McGinty), covered the song in the episode, performing a choreographed dance routine to it. Sarah Maloy of Billboard acknowledged, “Screaming girls and choreographed boy band moves are, of course, in no short supply.” Maloy described Glee’s version as “barely changing the sound or style of the original version.” Erica Futterman of Rolling Stone wrote, “While One Direction original manages to pack a pop punch, Glee’s take kind of hits the mark. (Literally. The Glee boys prance across the stage in the same path as the U.K. heartthrobs.)” Futterman concluded that it was the fourth-best performance of that episode. Glee’s cover was released for digital download through the iTunes Store on 8 May 2012. It charted at numbers 93 and 163 on the Canadian Hot 100 and UK Singles Chart, respectively.
