When she walks in the room, every eye in the place
Turns to follow her every move
She's arrived on the scene in her diamonds and jeans
World class, she's got nothing to prove

She's gettin' what she wants, she's a popular girl
Settin' those hearts on fire
Everybody wants to be part of her world
She's a popular girl, such a popular girl
She's gettin' what she wants, she's a popular girl
Settin' those hearts on fire
Everybody wants to be part of her world
She's a popular girl, such a popular girl
She's gettin' what she wants, she's a popular girl
Settin' those hearts on fire
Everybody wants to be part of her world
She's a popular girl, such a......
