Pretty Girl

"**Pretty Girl**" is Maggie's debut major-label single written by herself, Sasha Alex Sloan & Sean Myer and produced by Jayson DeZuzio. It was released on September 30, 2016.

## Background & Composition

After signing with 300 Entertainment, Maggie started working constatly with different writers and producers during 2016, however, she felt like people weren't taking her seriously about making music and always seeing her as no more that a social media star that wanted to venture into a quick music career.

In an interview Substream Magazine Maggie revealed:

"It’s about being more than what people see on social media or what people see in the public eye or the press. We all have backgrounds, we all have stories, we’re all going through something, we’ve all been through something- so it was just being more than what people judge you for, based on what you look like or based on the things you post- it’s just about being more than that."
In 2017 three remixes for the track were released. The remix made by Cheat Codes and CADE found the track worldwide commercial success and it's Maggie's biggest hit to date. In 2020 a new remix by Gabry Ponte, LUM!X and Paul Gannon was released. The track was sent out to different DJs for them to remix it and on April 5, 2022, two alternative remixes that were not released leaked online, one by Sjowgren and the other by Evan Gartner.

In various interviews for Pretty Girl, Maggie mentioned that a full length project, most likely an album, was coming and that she was very excited for it. The project, however, was scrapped due to unknown reasons.

## Lyrics

[Chorus]

I can swear, I can joke

I say what's on my mind

If I drink, if I smoke

I keep up with the guys

And you see me holding up my middle finger to the world

Fuck your ribbons and your pearls

'Cause I'm not just a pretty girl

[Verse 1]

I'm more than just a picture

I'm a daughter and a sister

Sometimes it's hard for me to show

That I'm more than just a rumor

Or a song on your computer

There's more to me than people know

[Pre-Chorus]

Some days I'm broke, some days I'm rich

Some days I'm nice, some days I can be a bitch

Some days I'm strong, some days I quit

I don't let it show, but I've been through some shit

[Chorus]

I can swear, I can joke

I say what's on my mind

If I drink, if I smoke

I keep up with the guys

And you see me holding up my middle finger to the world

Fuck your ribbons and your pearls

'Cause I'm not just a pretty girl

[Verse 2]

I'm more than just a number

I'm a hater, I'm a lover

Sometimes it's hard for me to show

That I'm more than just a title

Or a comment going viral

There's more to me than people know

[Pre-Chorus]

Some days I'm broke, some days I'm rich

Some days I'm nice, some days I can be a bitch

Some days I'm strong, some days I quit

I don't let it show, but I've been through some shit

[Chorus]

I can swear, I can joke

I say what's on my mind

If I drink, if I smoke

I keep up with the guys

And you see me holding up my middle finger to the world

Fuck your ribbons and your pearls

'Cause I'm not just a pretty girl, I'm not just a pretty girl

I'm not just a pretty girl, no I'm not just a pretty girl

I can swear, I can joke

I say what's on my mind

If I drink, if I smoke

I keep up with the guys

And you see me holding up my middle finger to the world

Fuck your ribbons and your pearls

'Cause I'm not just a pretty girl, I'm not just a pretty girl

I'm not just a pretty girl, no I'm not just a pretty girl

I'm not just a pretty girl
