The Wailers
Brand New Second Hand
[Pre-Chorus]
Sha la la, ooh la, yeah
Sha la la, ooh la, yeah

[Verse 1]
You're only acting like you are somebody
But I don't know to say, you're not nobody
Don't exhaust your painted face, girl
'Cause underneath that face, you're just half-disgrace

[Chorus]
And you're just a brand new second hand (Brand new second hand)
You'll make no one fool
You're just a brand new second hand (Brand new second hand)
I only come to school ya
You're brand new second hand (Brand new second hand)
Dirty golden rule
You're just a brand new second hand (Brand new second hand)

[Verse 2]
What you've got, girl that I don't know
Why you really, really got to exalt yourself so
Mama used to tell me a long time ago, girl
It's not everything, you know, that glitters is gold

[Chorus]
So you're just a brand new second hand (Brand new second hand)
Yes girl, no man no want no
Brand new second hand (Brand new second hand)
You better go back round so girl
Brand new second hand (Brand new second hand)
Don't you show us
(Brand new second hand)
[Pre-Chorus]
Sha la la, ooh la, yeah
Sha la la, ooh la, yeah
Sha la la, ooh la, yeah
Sha la la, ooh la, yeah

[Verse 3]
If you think it's the dress you wear that makes you a lady
Get that out of your mind, you must be crazy

[Chorus]
You're just a brand new second hand (Brand new second hand)
Yes girl, no man no want
Brand new second hand (Brand new second hand)
Yes girl, no bother come show us so
You're just a brand new second hand (Brand new second hand)
