I Feel Pretty/Unpretty from West Side Story/TLC is a mash-up featured in Born This Way, the eighteenth episode of Season Two. It is sung by Quinn and Rachel.
It is sung as Quinn and Rachel pose for pictures that are then used to make photo composites of what Rachel would look like with Quinn's nose. It is sung by Rachel to express her lack of confidence in the way she looks, especially when compared to Quinn, who is considered beautiful in her eyes. Quinn sings this to express her jealousy toward Rachel, because of the deep feelings Finn still has for her, and the fact that she is beautiful naturally, while Quinn had to change her appearance completely to be seen as beautiful by people. Quinn hardly makes eye contact with Rachel during the song.
I Feel Pretty is a song featured in the Broadway musical West Side Story, sung by Carol Lawrence, who played Maria, in the original Broadway production, while Unpretty is a 1999 single recorded song by TLC.
This song was voted Best Glee Song of All Time by TV Line readers in a July 2011 poll.

Lyrics
Quinn:
I wish I could tie you up in my shoes
Make you feel unpretty too
I was told I was beautiful
But what does that mean to you?
Look into the mirror who's inside there
The one with the long hair
Same old me again today, hey
Rachel:
My outsides are cool
My insides are blue
Every time I think I'm through
It's because of you
I've tried different ways
But it's all the same
At the end of the day
I have myself to blame
I'm just trippin'
Quinn and Rachel:
You can buy your hair if it won't grow
Quinn:
You can fix your nose if he says so (Rachel: Ahh ahh)
Quinn and Rachel:
You can buy all the make up
That M.A.C. can make
But if, you can't look inside you
Quinn:
Find out who am I to (Rachel:Ahh ahh)
Quinn and Rachel:
Be in a position to make me feel so
Rachel:
Damn unpretty
Quinn:
I feel pretty
Rachel:
Oh, so pretty
Quinn (with Rachel):
I feel (pretty and witty and bright)
Rachel:
Never insecure until I met you
Now I'm bein' stupid
I used to be so cute to me
Rachel and Quinn:
Just a little bit skinny
Quinn:
Why do I look to all these things
Quinn and Rachel:
To keep you happy
Rachel:
Maybe get rid of you
And then I'll get back to me, Heeey
Quinn:
My outsides look cool
My insides are blue
Every time I think I'm through
It's because of you
Rachel:
I've tried different ways
But it's all the same
At the end of the day
I have myself to blame
Keep on trippin'
Quinn and Rachel:
You can buy your hair if it won't grow
Quinn:
You can fix your nose if he says so (Rachel: Ahh ahh)
Quinn and Rachel:
You can buy all the make up
That M.A.C. can make
But if, you can't look inside you
Quinn:
Find out who am I to (Rachel:Ahh ahh)
Quinn and Rachel:
Be in a position to make me feel so
Rachel:
Damn unpretty
Quinn:
I feel pretty
Rachel:
Oh, so pretty
Quinn (with Rachel):
I feel (pretty and witty and bright) and I pity
Rachel:
Any girl who isn't me tonight
Quinn:
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (Rachel: Tonight)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (Rachel: Tonight)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (Rachel: Tonight)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Rachel:
I feel pretty (Quinn: You can buy your hair if it won't grow)
Oh, so pretty (Quinn: You can fix your nose if he says so)
I feel pretty and witty and bright (Quinn:You can buy all the make up that M.A.C. can make, but if)
Quinn and Rachel:
You can't look inside you
Quinn:
Find out who am I to (Rachel: Ahh ahh)
Quinn and Rachel:
Be in a position to make me feel so
Rachel:
Damn unpretty
Quinn:
I feel pretty
Quinn and Rachel:
But unpretty...
