Thursday (Acoustic) Lyrics

[Verse 1: Jess Glynne]
I won't wear makeup on Thursday
I'm sick of coverin' up
I'm tired of feelin' so broken
I'm tired of fallin' in love
Sometimes I'm shy and I'm anxious
Sometimes I'm down on my knees
Sometimes I try to embrace all my insecurities
So I won't wear makeup on Thursday
'Cause who I am is enough

[Pre-Chorus: Jess Glynne]
And there are many things that I could change so slightly
But why would I succumb to something so unlike me?
I was always taught to just be myself
Don't change for anyone

[Chorus: Jess Glynne]
I wanna laugh, I wanna cry
Don't want these tears inside my eyes, yeah
Don't wanna wake up and feel insecure
I wanna sing, I wanna dance
I wanna feel love inside my hands again
I just wanna feel beautiful

[Post-Chorus: Jess Glynne & Ed Sheeran]
Oh-oh-oh, oh I-
Oh-oh-oh, oh I-
Oh-oh-oh, I just wanna feel beautiful
[Verse 2: Jess Glynne]
I'll wear my sweatpants on Thursday
And I'll drink sloe gin from a can
I'll build my own independence
I don't always need a man
You know sometimes I feel lonely
Could do with the company
Oh, I get high when I'm down
But you know that's alright with me
So I will do nothing on Thursday
Sit alone and be

[Pre-Chorus: Jess Glynne]
And there are many things that I could change so slightly
But why would I succumb to something so unlike me?
I was always taught to just be myself
Don't change for anyone

[Chorus: Jess Glynne]
I wanna laugh, I wanna cry
Don't want these tears inside my eyes, yeah
Don't wanna wake up and feel insecure
I wanna sing, I wanna dance
I wanna feel love inside my hands again
I just wanna feel beautiful
[Post-Chorus: Jess Glynne & Ed Sheeran]
Oh-oh-oh, oh I-
Oh-oh-oh, oh I-
Oh-oh-oh, I just wanna feel beautiful

[Bridge: Jess Glynne]
I won't wear makeup on Thursday
'Cause who I am is enough
And I-

[Chorus: Jess Glynne]
I wanna laugh, I wanna cry
Don't want these tears inside my eyes, yeah
Don't wanna wake up and feel insecure
I wanna sing, I wanna dance
I wanna feel love inside my hands again
I just wanna feel beautiful

[Post-Chorus: Jess Glynne & Ed Sheeran]
Oh-oh-oh, oh I-
Oh-oh-oh, oh I-
Oh-oh-oh, I just wanna feel beautiful
Oh-oh-oh, oh I-
Oh I-
Oh I- , I just wanna feel beautiful

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
