Lighten Up

1. I was wakin' down the street I was feeling mighty fine
'Till I caught a glimpse in a window of my behind
There was a jiggle and a wiggle that I’d never seen before
And as I looked a little closer Oh my God I found more!
I freaked out and I shreded out «This has just ruined my day!»
Till I heard a voice inside me say…
Chorus: 'Lighten Up — don’t take it so seriously
'Lighten up — trust the mystery
«Lighten Up… it doesn’t matter anyway
«Just enjoy your life and get out of your way — Lighten Up!»
2. So now I’m headed to a party to meet my friends
I’ve got an outfit that’s to diet for — Honey I am just the living end!
But as i scope out the scene it’s obvious to me
that the money at this party is simply obsene
They’re talking about their mansions, their yachts, and dropping names
But as I try to make a beeline, slip out the back door
I hear a voice inside me saying once more
3. So now I’m looking in the mirror a new wrinkle has appeared
Do I curse? Do I stress? It’s the thing I most feared
But then I remember my new mantra and I soon realize
That I am perfect even with wrinkles and cellulite thighs
I don’t have to change a thing, struggle or try
Cause my real beauty comes from deep inside…
