This song shares a little bit of my feelings about natural women, how makeup and cosmetics are overly emphasized. It's about how women are beautiful without makeup, mostly. Makeup doesn't replicate or match the beauty of the natural skin, scars, freckles, and the like.
lyrics
You're beautiful without your makeup on.
To see your face not done up like an aged whore...
The farce can't touch the freckles on your face.
They spread across your cheekbones
And down your neck
And they go down to your arms
And they grow in the sun.
