Welcome to the rhythm of a brand new day

Take your old-fashioned fears

And just throw them away

You should add some color and a fresh new "do"

'Cause it's time for a star

Who looks just like you

Don'tcha let nobody

Try to steal your fun

'Cause a little touch of lipstick

Never hurt no one

The future's got a million roads

For you to choose

But you'll walk a little taller

In some high-heel shoes

And once you find the style

That makes you feel like you

Something fresh

Something new

Step on out

Hear us shout
