Original

Verse One: Do you ever look into the mirror 
and hate what you see?/ Do you ever want 
to be the girl next door?/ But there is only one
of her/ And there has to be one of you/

Chorus: Because you're original!/ You're one of
a kind/ You're the best you there can be/ I can't 
be you/ You can't be me/ Only YOU can/ Be original/ 
be/ just be/ just be you

Verse Two: Don't change who you are to him or her/
They can be them/ You be you/ You are perfect the 
the way you are/ Don't settle just to make the par

Chorus 

Verse Three: You're a gem/ You're a piece of priceless 
treasure/ You're magic/ You're you/ and don't change 
that for the world

Chorus X2
