I was a fool to believe you had to be brand new
To be beautiful
Losing your shine but you’re still looking fine
Yeah you’re magical (it’s true)
If you ever worried you’re not good enough (well, you’re good enough)
Take a look at your reflection, and you’ll see what I see
Ooo-ooo-ooo you don’t have to be brand new
Look at you, you got it baby
Ooo-ooo-ooo you ain’t got a thing to prove
I celebrate ya
Whoever said that younger is better
Forget ‘em
This old girl’s got her place in the world
Tried to tear you down
Don’t you let ‘em
Ninety years along
Here’s your song (here’s your song)
21st century baby
You’re still standing strong
Ooo-ooo-ooo you don’t have to be brand new
Look at you, you got it baby
Ooo-ooo-ooo you ain’t got a thing to prove
I celebrate ya
Winter, spring, summer, fall
By my side through it all
Reaching out your silver hand
A stairway to the cherryland
Ooo-ooo-ooo you don’t have to be brand new
Look at you, you got it baby
Ooo-ooo-ooo you ain’t got a thing to prove
I celebrate ya
Ooo-ooo-ooo you don’t have to be brand new
Look at you, you got it baby
Ooo-ooo-ooo you ain’t got a thing to prove
I celebrate ya
