[English]

Stand straight

Don't look down

Hair back and never frown

Put on your best face, the perfect gown

When you take the stage

Now, wig on

Nails are blue

Red cheeks and crazy shoes

With our touch in neon, they'll have no clue

That the game goes on

And on

Nobody knows 'bout the video girl

Let's keep it, our little secret, secret

I gotta know you won't tell the world

Cross your heart, you will keep it secret

I will shine when it's time, so let's keep our little secret, secret

Now that you know the truth

I have to trust in you

My hand in yours

We'll promise to never break this pact

No, I never meant to hide

Who I am inside

But now it's happened, so can we try

To keep it going on and on?

Nobody knows 'bout the video girl

Let's keep it, our little secret, secret

I gotta know you won't tell the world

Cross your heart, you will keep it secret

I will shine when it's time, so let's keep our little secret, secret
