This person was working for Ecomoda, which was a fashion design company
She's a very unattractive but intelligent woman that I know
Her name was Beatriz Pinzón Solano, and she looks very childish to me
A Colombian woman who was thinking that "ugly is the new beautiful"

Armando's in charge of a fashion house, a womanizing boss who's in love with someone
And that must be an ugly duckling who's kinda sweet
And you think she's very cute regardless of that she was totally looking dumb

Yo soy Betty, "I am the ugly one!", yo soy Betty, "I am the ugly one!"
Whoa oh! Yo soy Betty la fea, yo soy Betty la fea
This soap opera really scares me half to death, I hated this show!

Money-grubbing orthodontists and internet fetishes had proven it
You thought you're safe from geeky girls, and you think she was tickin' you off for now

There were Marcela and Patricia, as well as Daniel, Hugo, and Mario
I know that there was some guy named Nicolas
He's a childhood friend of Beatriz Pinzón Solano aka Betty

Yo soy Betty, "I am the ugly one!", yo soy Betty, "I am the ugly one!"
Whoa oh! Yo soy Betty la fea, yo soy Betty la fea
This soap opera really makes me wanted to throw up once and for all!

Yo soy Betty, "I am the ugly one!", yo soy Betty, "I am the ugly one!"
Whoa oh! Yo soy Betty la fea, yo soy Betty la fea
This soap opera really scares me half to death, I hated this show!
