Fraser, Brooke - Betty Lyrics

What's this song about?

this the same girl who sings with Hillsong now?

2019 August still listening...!

January 2020

What nationality is she?

Very nice song short and sweet.

Love this song

You got a quick snap-lock on your cold, cold heart
You got your Y.S.L. kicks and a red birthmark
In the shape of Canada
That you try to keep a secret

You got a quick clack walk and a cold hard stare
And if your eyes could talk they'd say they just don't care
Before they wander off
To hide inside their sockets

You've got your scars and you've got your birthmarks
You've got Toronto hiding on your hip, honey
You've got your secrets
You've got your regrets
Darling, we all do

You got a fool-proof plan for a lonely life
You won't be no one's daughter and no drunk man's wife
If a wife at all
It's a silly institution
Or so you keep insisting

You've got your scars and you've got your birthmarks
You've got Toronto hiding on your hip, honey
You've got your secrets
You've got your regrets
Darling, we all do

You're cool coy, 'bout to stroll, very hip
It's you that's hidden by the expectations
We want to see you, won't you show us where to start?
You're talking trash with your red liquor lips
It's you that tickle in the conversation
Sweet Betty, won't you show us who you are?

You've got your scars and you've got your birthmarks
You've got Toronto hiding on your hip, honey
You've got your secrets
You've got your regrets
Darling, we all do

You've got a quick snap-lock on your cold, cold heart

Canada is to the USA as NZ is to Australia

It's funny 10 years ago. Every Christian would get on her because her dress was too high

Embarrassing

kathy maxted I'm with you there. I cringed. LOL

why embarrassing?

She says its a birthmark the shape of Canada - Toronto on a hip ie the birthmark

loooooooooooove it..

Canção Perfeita!

I didn't know about Brooke!!? I only know her on worship stage. Nice sone though

estas bien linda,bellisima,bonita

beautiful work Brooke.... I wud love to know the story behind this though......

Is it just me or does anyone else think Brooke looks a bit like Anne Hathaway from Devil Wears Prada?

Your right, she does resemble her in a way.

+Natalie Herbert I totaly agreed with you! At first look I realised!

+Natalie Herbert *** Hi Humanity *** In my not so humble opine; Anne Hathaway is easily forgotten, but Brook Fraser is not forgettable. ***Brook is gorgeous**! Brook is smart. Anne H. could resemble Brook but only as the ugly duckling sibling in the same brood/family.

It's so true!

Great music and so Brooke..so nice.

I think I may be slightly obsessed with this song.

Beautiful !!!

shame on all you haters

love this song dont get offended when she talks about canada

To the Canadians who keep getting offended, she's only mentioning Canada due to it's size. She's talking about big secrets and regrets. Canada is big. The end.

totallty agree lol

<3      <3     <3     !!!

Grosaaaaaa!

Veronica Gelen than why you watching it?

+Beka Tizzy :-)

:) GOD BLESS YOU! ^_^

We sing ♫ ♪

She is so adorable. I love Brooke Fraser❤️

I'm absolutely positive she's NOT insulting Canada. Kiwis love Canada!

I appreciate the shout out to Canada and Toronto, but the more I listened to this song, it seems like she's suggesting that Toronto and Canada in general, are somehow shameful...so shame on you Brooke Fraser!!

She never said Canada was bad though.

Cadicus 0lgsylp

shes literally reffering to the fact that the birthmark was big such as Canada is also big. She isnt being shameful to Canada whatsoever

She’s not dissing Canada and Toronto you egg. She’s referring to the size as example 🙄

but.... If you are a true christians... you will not do the ways of the world.... Romans 12:1 - 2.... Because you are a NEW CREATION.....The word has already spoken...

mmm... What do you understand in the word TRUE christian?...

Then, what is the difference between Christians and unbelievers...?

That's my question too.... you're not alone...

She's beautiful!!!

once you are a true christian you cannot be "not christian" anymore. she always had her own career, hillsong band is a ministry not a job

There were actually 3 of them who wrote this song. The other one was Jon Foreman. Do you know him, Switchfoot's frontman?

Where is she from ?

Twerking Marshmallow New Zealand 🇳🇿

New zealand

i don't speak english :(

I jes lav herrr. She's so talented.

brasil estamos juntos :).adorei essa mt boa broke vc e mt bonita

brooke writes such intelligent songs ...

I can't stop listening to this sweet, sweet song:)!!!

so gorgeous!!1 i love her.

I love Brooke Fraser!!

she really needs a new video editor.

*_* She looks like a sweet singing little bird ! Love her ! <3

I speak Dutch, english and a bit of german & french, because I'm from The Netherlands. :p

Who is this song about? ME? lol

Dun understand this song

aispace.blogspot.com

I love her little smirk at 0:53

you're my idol brooke!!!

she is a Christian??

Yes she is :)

it's Jon haha, but yeah! great isn't it? :)

I really love the video, it's really cute, with all the flowers and the paper bird or butterflies, those all made me calm and happy :D

Puoi scommetterci *_*

Beautiful Brooke :)

she souns as if she has short tongue but on her album, she doesn't :/

it's a narrative song...Most of the songs in 'Flags' are stories written and co-written by Brooke...she said she wanted to get out of the box and try to be a narrator on her latest album...:)...

totally awesome song .... boring music video ... but hey, flowers!

Good song...but what does the song stand for?

nice make-up dress, and style i totally LOVE IT !! brooke 'fckng' love yaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! ^^ <333333

hosanna girl

Se vc ama ela, procure Haikella no Google leia sobre seu estilo fofo!

e un video magico

IM BETTT!!!!!!

well, im admittedly atheist, but i have nothing against god or religions, but I'd say that her talent got her where she is today, she has a wonderful voice

Her dress *.*

This song is awesome

She is also a christian singer who does work for God but that doesn't mean that everything she will sing about will be about GOD. Lastly shes pretty sucessful and only GOD can bring blessings like that.!!! GOD BLESS YOU BROOKE!!

i wanted to comment on wat ppl r saying
firstly whether or not she dresses well, she is a christian and God is the only one who can judge her. i agree wth comments below that God judges her heart not her outside appearance but i also understand as christians we must represent God in everything we do. Personally i feel like the way she dresses is fine, shes not running around half naked like the rest of the celebrities!! ( britney, beyonce, jessica simpson other alleged christian celebrities)

they speak english in new zealand. brooke is a christian singer and still is christian, just not directly singing about it right now.

... what is the meaning of "You've got Toronto hiding on your hip" ?

quanto mi piace Brooke Fraser.....altro che quelle schifo di canzoni tipo Danza Kuduro,Waka Waka o Tacatà......

The video doesn't do the song justice

which language does the speak in new zealand?? and is brooke a christian singer???? some one help me please

Toronto! :)

Zochola

wow go ahead and respond to a comment of 3 months ago. you're wasting your time.

She's from New Zealand but lives in Australia ;)

I speak english :)

@fredferrari18 nuova zelanda, credo..

lei è molto bella e anche la voce è bellissima
ma qualcuno sa dirmi se è scozzese o irlandese? grazie

Il numero di commenti sul naso denota la grande profondità della maggior parte degli italiani.

Quanto l'ho cercato sto video,domande su Answers,ricerche su MTV,Wikipedia,l'ho ritrovata per caso.
La sentii su MTV,la davano spessissimo quest'estate,e ora l'ho ritrovata,per fortuna....che canzone fantastica.....

LOVE YOU CANADA <3

naso importante ma sexy :-)
ci sta bene in quel viso.

I could hear this song over and over again..

@LauVanessa0303
lol thanks for the reply mate. yeah It's pretty clear now. I was just wondering that so many Italian people tend to watch this video. cuz, this artist is actually from New Zealand. hope you don't find any offensive here that's not even my intention mate. Thanks anyway cheers!

@PssttCHICKITA if you're going to correct every spelling mistake in every comment on this video, good luck.

@SuperVeez HAHAHA!! :D
