Beautiful people,
You live in the same world as I do,
But somehow I never noticed you before today,
I'm ashamed to say.

Beautiful people,
We share the same back door,
And it isn't right we never met before,
But then we may never meet again.

If I weren't afraid you'd laugh at me,
I would run and take all your hands,
And I'd gather ev'ryone together for a day,
And when we're gathered I'll pass buttons out that say
"Beautiful People".

Then you'll never have to be alone 'cause
There'll always be someone
With the same button on as you.
Include him in everything you do.

Beautiful people,
You ride the same subway as I do ev'ry morning,
That's got to tell you something.
We have so much in common,
I go the same direction that you do.
So if you take care of me,
Maybe I'll take care of you.

Beautiful people,
You look like friends of mine,
And it's about time
That someone said it here and now,
I make a vow that sometime, somehow;
I'll have a meeting, invite ev'ryone you know,
I'll pass out buttons for the ones who come to show.

Beautiful people
Never have to be alone 'cause
There'll always be someone
With the same button on as you.
Include him in ev'rything you do.

He may be sitting right next to you.
He may be beautiful people, too.
And if you take care of him,
Maybe I'll take care of you.
And if you take care of him,
Maybe I'll take care of you.
