[Verse 1]
[Liam]
You're insecure, [Well fuck you too, Liam. What makes you think you know her?]
Don't know what for, [Maybe her father raped her. Anyway, you shouldn't be prying.]
You're turning heads when you walk through the door, [Bad body odour, I suppose]
Don't need make-up, [So you judge women by whether they need makeup. What a shallow chauvanist you are.]
To cover up, [And what exactly do women need to cover up, young man?]
Being the way that you are is enough, [REALLY? SHE'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU? OH BOY!]
[Bridge]
[Harry]
Everyone else in the room can see it, [What room are we standing in, Harry?]
Everyone else but you, [Again, this girl probably has a severe psychological problem if she can't pick up on the fact that everyone else in the room is attracted to her despite her self-imagined imperfections. This suggests a very twisted neurosis.]
[Chorus]
[All]
Baby you light up my world like nobody else, [Your world is lit up by a shy, insecure, rape-victim with zero empathy skills?]
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed, [Well, premature ejaculation happens to lots of guys your age. Don't fret.]
But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell, [Tell... that she's... in a schizophrenic world of her own?]
You don't know,
Oh oh,
You don't know you're beautiful, [Actually, "smiling at the ground" suggests that she is well aware of what effect she is having and is trying to slyly cover it up like a cocktease]
If only you saw what I can see, [Then you could be a superficial chauvanist who projects imaginary character traits too!]
You'll understand why I want you so desperately, [...kinda creepy]
Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe, [...seriously dude, stop staring at her...]
You don't know,
Oh oh,
You don't know you're beautiful,
Oh oh,
That's what makes you beautiful [So self-aware confident women who have a positive mental image of themselves are ugly in your philosophy? You boys are douchebags.]
[Verse 2]
[Zayn]
So c-come on, [Fuck off, Zayn!]
You got it wrong, [Telling a woman she's wrong - that'll score you some points]
To prove I'm right, [Yeah, cos romance is all about winning arguments]
I put it in a song, [Making money from her psychological problems? Nice.]
I don't know why, [Maybe that's the bigger question here, Zayney Cakes]
You're being shy, [Did I mention possible rape?]
And turn away when I look into your eye eye eyes, [I'm no body language expert, but usually when a girl turns away from you it's because they DON'T FUCKING LIKE YOU]
[Bridge]
[Harry]
Everyone else in the room can see it,
Everyone else but you, [Who the hell INVITED this girl to the room?]
[Chorus]
[All]
Baby you light up my world like nobody else, [You need to light up your own world. Be happy with YOURSELVES.]
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed, [If she's flipping her hair, she obviously cares about her appearance and the effect she is having. Again, you've misinterpreted this girl]
But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell, [Maybe it's gas? Maybe she's remembering what she saw on Family Guy last night?]
You don't know,
Oh oh,
You don't know you're beautiful, [And you don't know when to call it a day]
If only you saw what I can see, [I'll tell the boys at the lab to get cracking]
You'll understand why I want you so desperately, [She'd be a... lesbian?]
Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe, [So all FIVE of you are looking at her? Way to make her feel uncomfortable, guys.]
You don't know,
Oh oh,
You don't know you're beautiful,
Oh oh,
[Harry]
That's what makes you beautiful [You're a prick, Harry.]
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na Na Na [x2] [She said something similar when she was getting raped]
[Middle 8]
[Harry]
Baby you light up my world like nobody else, [Have you heard of our lord, Jesus Christ?]
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed, [Does she have a special technique? Does she use a spatula perhaps?]
But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell, [Definitely farting.]
[All]
You don't know,
Oh oh,
You don't know you're beautiful, [Getting a kind of culty vibe from you guys now]
[Chorus]
[All]
Baby you light up my world like nobody else, [When did you last speak to your mothers?]
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed, [Just wait till she's working in the burger kitchen!]
But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell, [You're putting a lot of stock in this one gesture, aren't you, boys?]
You don't know,
Oh oh,
You don't know you're beautiful ([Zayn:] Oh), [Yeah, you tell 'em Zayn.]
If only you saw what I can see,
You'll understand why I want you so desperately ([Harry:] desperately), [Steady Harry... steady... keep it together]
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,
[Harry]
That's what makes you beautiful [You are all terrible terrible people and should leave this poor girl alone.]
