RuPaul Music: Supermodel (You Better Work)

Album “Supermodel of the World” (1993)

Track 1: Supermodel (You Better Work)"

Compositores: RuPaul Charles, Jimmy Harry y Larry Tee

Duración: 3:59

Si no les falla la memoria, o si es que han visto RuPaul’s Drag Race desde Season 1 (como yo :D), recordarán que la primera canción del Lip Sync For your Life de Season 1 fue esta, y tuvo como contrincantes a Akashia y Victoria “Porkchop” Parker. Y es que mama Ru definitivamente tenía que abrir el show con uno de sus hits, ya que a pesar que Supermodel (You Better Word) haya sido el tercer single de su carrera, fue el mayor éxito de RuPaul en los Estados Unidos.

Dato curioso: A Kurt Cobain, vocalist de Nirvana, le encantaba esta canción por lo que la citó como una de sus favoritas de 1993. De ahí surge una reconocida fotografía de ellos, realizada en la presentación de los MTV Video Music Awards de ese año. ¿La foto? ¡Aquí!

Y ahora, los dejo con el video musical. Uno que es el más comercializado, luego su versión original extendida. ¡Disfrútenlos y recuerden... you better work! Weeerkkk!!! 😹

RuPaul Supermodel - Letra en Inglés:

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
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

It don't matter what you wear
They're checking out your savoir-faire
And it don't matter what you do
Cause everything looks good on you

Supermodel
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

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

I see your picture everywhere
A million dollar derriere
And when you walked into the room
You had everybody's eyes on you
Supermodel

Linda, work mama
Naomi, she is fierce
Christy, foxy lady, out of sight
Cindy, I can feel it
Claudia, sell the garment,
Nikki, work the runway, sweetie
I have one thing to say, sashay, shante, shante, shante
Shantay, shantay, shantay
I have one thing to say, sashay, shante, shante, shante
Shante, shante, shante, whoa

It don't matter what you wear
They're checking out your savoir-faire
And it don't matter what you do
Cause everything looks good on you

Supermodel
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

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
You better work, work, work
Supermodel
You better work, work, work
I have one thing to say, you better work!
