See that girl walkin' down the street 
She looks like a prima donna 
She's a star in her head and the world's at her feet 
She looks at you twice and your heart skips a beat 
She didn't learn it at high school or from a glossy magazine 
You see she's a natural, she gotta natural gift 
You gotta rise above your stupidity 
You're dumb but don't give in 
You gotta rise above your station 
Discover what's within 
And with some luck and dedication and some careful manipulation 

Everybody needs some inspiration 
Everybody needs some motivation 
Mix it up with some imagination 
And use your natural gifts, you gotta natural gift 
You got natural gifts 
Ah, hey, hey, hey, ah, hey, hey 
And use your natural gifts, you got natural gifts 

You don't have to be a genius to find 
All the hidden potential deep in your mind 
You don't have to know about nuclear physics 
Know all the formulas and vital statistics 
You don't have to be an intellectual, you don't have to be a scientist 
To use your natural gifts, you got natural gifts, yeh 
Use your natural gifts, you got natural gifts 
You gotta stop this depression you're in now 
Stop this emotional rift, you need a psychological lift now 
Everybody needs some inspiration, everybody needs some motivation 
Mix it up with some imagination and use your natural gifts 
There are bad people, mad people, bitter people, scared people 
want to put you down and keep you in your place 
But you gotta chance to break out, you gotta chance to get out 
And use your natural gifts
