Lyrics:
[Spoken intro - LaWanda Page, RuPaul]
Once upon a time, there was a little black girl, in the Brewster Projects of Detroit, Michigan. At fifteen, she was spotted by an Ebony Fashion Fair talent scout and her modeling career took off
You better work.
[Chorus - RuPaul]
You better work
(Cover girl)
Work it, girl
(Give a twirl)
Do your thing on the runway
Work
(Supermodel)
You better work it, girl
(Of the world)
Wet your lips and make love to the camera
[Hook - RuPaul]
Work
Turn to the left
Work
Now turn to the right
Work
Sashay, shante
[Verse 1 - RuPaul]
It don't matter what you wear
They're checking out your savior faire
And it don't matter what you do
Cause everything looks good on you
Supermodel
[Chorus - RuPaul]
You better work
(Cover girl)
Work it, girl
(Give a twirl)
Do your thing on the runway
Work
(Supermodel)
You better work it, girl
(Of the world)
Wet your lips and make love to the camera
[Hook - RuPaul]
Work
Turn to the left
Work
Now turn to the right
Work
Sashay, shante
[Verse 2 - RuPaul]
I see your picture everywhere
A million dollar derriere
And when you walked in to the room
You had everybody's eyes on you, supermodel
[Hook - RuPaul]
Work
Turn to the left
Work
Now turn to the right
Work
Sashay, shante
Work
Turn to the left
Work
Now turn to the right
Work
Sashay, shante
[Outro - RuPaul]
You better work
Work
Work
(Supermodel)
You better work
Work
Work
Work
I have one thing to say:
You better work

I think it should be pointed out that this was released like 26 years ago and RuPaul still looks exactly the same. Fierce.
-
Kurt Cobain said this was one of his favorite songs to ever come out of 1993.
-
The fact that Trixie played this to walk to, and completely forgot how it starts will never stop being funny to me
-
The kids dont know what Prime RuPaul was capable of... She is THE Drag Supermodel that broke the mainstream glass ceiling. The Lingo, the Attitude, the Height...just out there in full daylight talking to people - black, 7 ft tall, no care in the world. All the challenges on Drag Race represent parts of her career. Design: Making her own stuff in her Punk-Beginnings. Rumix: Releasing Music. Improv: Having a talkshow. Acting: Being in movies and tv shows. Advertising: Building her brand and selling merch. Girl Groups: Her Punk Band in the 80s. Comedy: Creating memorable catchphrases and hosting. Even if she is not that involved anymore, the challenges gives the contestants the tools to do it all.

How brave to be doing this way before drag became so mainstream. RuPaul was truly a trailblazer.
-
This song could get me through anything
-
It doesn’t matter your gender or preference. This song will make you feel *FABULOUS*.
-
I'm a photographer. I always play this song when working with the kids for magazines. Gets them in the mood quick especially when I do the "sachey chantey" part they laugh and have so much fun we all forget it's a photoshoot lol. Love RuPaul!!
-
Producer: how many outfits do you want? RuPaul: Yes
-
93 I didn't even knew what "gay" meant and Ru was already rocking drag on new york streets at daylight. Ru is amazing.
-
"Little black girl" Then enters Trixie...
-
I'm a lifelong rocker and metalhead, but this song is a FUCKING banger
-
I'm a straight married man but I lose my shit when I hear this.This is a straight banger.Rupaul killed this.
-
I need the children to know that when this came out it changed EVERYTHING! Grandma's were asking questions and loving it, Uncles loves it, Mother's were looking like...well duh it all makes sense with my son now. It was really a moment. Rupaul changed POP CULTURE forever!
-
This was so ahead of its time. Thirty years on and it still slaps.
-
This is why she is Mama Ru!!! A total icon the fact that she did this in the 90's is everything!!! I remember being 4 or 5 in the 90's watching this!!! Thank you Mama Ru for not being afraid to be you!!!
-
RuPaul is always ahead of her time!
-
Rupaul put this out in 1993 just think about that for a sec
-
Can’t believe trixie wrote, produced and performed this all herself
