Just right – English Lyrics
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
Mirror, mirror, please tell her
Scale, you too tell her
You don’t need to change a thing, you’re just pretty
You look perfect just the way you are
Just need to be happy, without a worry
Don’t try to look for what isn’t good enough
Turn your attention from the mirror to my eyes
Get off the scale and onto my back
No matter how hard I try to find
And look at you again and again
That unpretty spot you keep talking about
I can’t see it at all
Stay just the way you are are are are are are and I I I I I
don’t want anything more so don’t you change a thing thing thing thing thing
Don’t worry worry worry worry worry worry cuz your everything is all all all all
All right, so don’t you change a thing thing thing thing thing
Just stay (the way you are) oh- (the way you are)
Oh- (the way you are) oh oh oh that’s all I need
Your everything is just right, so you
don’t need to worry, you can
100 percent trust every word I say
100 percent erase all your worries
No matter how hard I try to find
And look at you again and again
