Take off all the make-up girl,
Shine your light, show the world,
Don't be shy, don't be scared,
You don't have to hide under there,
Let's throw away the magazines,
Turn off the static on the TV,
Wish you could see yourself the way I do
[Chorus :]
Nobody ever told you,
Nobody ever told you,
You shine like a diamond, glitter like gold,
And you need to know, what nobody ever told you,
Yeah, La la, la la la la
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Acting like it knows it all,
Tells you lies of vanity,
It doesn't care what's underneath,
All hung-up on the negative,
Doesn't have to be the way it is,
Wish you could see yourself the way I do
[Chorus :]
Nobody ever told you,
Nobody ever told you,
You shine like a diamond, glitter like gold,
And you need to know, what nobody ever told you,
Yeah, La la, la la la la
[Bridge :]
Na na, na na,
Oh, free as a bird up on a wire,
Just like a flower growin' wild,
You're beautiful, you're beautiful,
Nobody ever told you,
Yeah, nobody ever told you
[Chorus :]
You shine like a diamond, glitter like gold,
And you need to know what nobody ever told you,
You shine like a diamond, glitter like gold,
And you need to know what nobody ever told you,
Oh, you're free as a bird up on a wire,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Just like a flower growin' wild,
Just like a flower growin' wild,
Na na, na, na, na.....
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
