[Verse 1] Baby love I think I’ve been a little too kind Didn’t notice you walking all over my peace of mind And the shoes I gave you as a present Puttin’ someone first only works when you’re in their top five And by the way I’m going out tonight [Chorus] Best believe I’m still bejeweled when I walk in the room I can still make the whole place shimmer And when I meet the band they ask "Do you have a man?" I can still say "I don’t remember" Familiarity breeds contempt don’t put me in the basement When I want the penthouse of your heart Diamonds in my eyes I polish up real I polish up real nice                       (Nice)         [Verse 2] Baby boy I think I’ve been too good of a girl (Too good of a girl) Did all the extra credit then got graded on a curve I think it’s time to teach some lessons I made you my world (Huh?) have you heard? (Huh?) I can reclaim the land And I miss you (I miss you) but I miss sparkling (Ah hey) [Chorus] Best believe I’m still bejeweled when I walk in the room I can still make the whole place shimmer And when I meet the band they ask "Do you have a man?" I can still say "I don’t remember" Familiarity breeds contempt don’t put me in the basement When I want the penthouse of your heart Diamonds in my eyes I polish up real I polish up real nice                       (Nice)         [Bridge] Sapphire tears on my face sadness became my whole sky (Sky) But some guy said my aura’s moonstone just ’cause he was high I been dancin’ all night and you can try to change my mind But you might have to wait in line What’s a girl gonna do? A diamond’s gotta shine [Chorus] Best believe I’m still bejeweled when I walk in the room I can still make the whole place shimmer And when I meet the band they ask "Do you have a man?" I can still say "I don’t remember" Familiarity breeds contempt don’t put me in the basement When I want the penthouse of your heart Diamonds in my eyes I polish up real I polish up real nice [Outro] I been dancin’ all night and you can try to change my mind But you might have to wait in line What’s a girl gonna do? What’s a girl gonna do? I polish up nice Best believe I’m still bejeweled when I walk in the room I can still make the whole place shimmer.

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque le voyage d’une femme qui réalise qu'elle a été trop accommodante et a négligé ses propres besoins dans une relation. Elle se rend compte qu'elle a mis l'autre en priorité, repensant à sa valeur et à sa beauté intérieure. Tout en affirmant sa force et son éclat, elle se montre déterminée à ne pas laisser sa lumière s’éteindre, même quand les autres s'interrogent sur sa vie amoureuse. Dans un contexte où l’on peut parfois se perdre dans les relations, le message insiste sur l’importance de préserver son estime de soi et de briller de mille feux, indépendamment des opinions des autres. C’est une affirmation de soi et un appel à célébrer sa propre valeur.
