Lin-Manuel Miranda
It Ain’t No Thing
[NAUTICA]
There’s a saying that I learned
Passed down through centuries
Which translated from the French
Means "Sista' please!"

Girl, you're special, you're rough
Yeah, but you're a gem!
And if people haven't seen it
Well, hey! That's on them!

So, you got a little baby fat—
It ain't no thing, yeah
Look at Twig! He's down with that!
It ain't no thing, yeah!

Now, why walk around
Like you're made of asbestos?
When Twig loves your eyes
Your thighs and your breasts, yes?
So shake like jello on a spring—
It ain't no thing, yeah!
It ain't no thing!

[LA CIENIGA]
Oh whoa
Some kids used to tease me
And put me through hell
Some people are mean—
[LA CIENIGA & NAUTICA]
But most people mean well
It's just their thinkin' is stinkin'—

[LA CIENIGA]
And a little outdated
Or maybe they're merely un-edumecated!
Got pretty eyes, but thunder thighs—
It ain't no thing, yeah!
I'm daddy's little big surprise—
It ain't no thing, yeah!

Love who you are

[NAUTICA & LA CIENIGA]
And the world will adore you!

[LA CIENIGA]
And the couple that don't
At least they can't ignore you!
Now boys all want to buy me bling—
It ain't no thing, yeah!

[NAUTICA & ENSEMBLE]
Na na na! Hey, hey!
Na na na! Hey, hey!
[LACIENEGA]
It ain't no thing! Yeah!

[ENSEMBLE]
Na na na! Hey, hey!
Na na na! Hey, hey!

[LA CIENEGA]
Don’t walk away and leave cases unopened
While you're playing 'Deal or No Deal'!

[ENSEMBLE]
No deal!

[NAUTICA]
And don't you just take little pieces of life

[LA CIENEGA & NAUTICA]
Treat yourself to the seven-course meal!

[BRIDGET]
Oh, oh!
I've been hatin' on myself unnecessarily

[ENSEMBLE]
No, no, no!
[BRIDGET]
I’m here to state, I’m feelin' great
Celebratin' me!

[ENSEMBLE]
Yeah, yeah!

[BRIDGET (& ENSEMBLE)]
I've got a big butt!
(Work!)
Well, so what?
(Work!)
It's good as any other!
(Oh, ooh wooh!)
And I think of you as sisters
From another mother!

Yeah, I got some junk up in my trunk
(Back it on up!)
It ain't no thing, yeah!
(It ain't no thing, no it ain't no thing!)
Twig thinks I’m sexy—who'd a thunk?
(You better think!)
Let freedom ring, yeah!
(Freedom, freedom, yeah, freedom!)

I'm through hesitating, time to get off the pot!

[BRIDGET, LA CIENIGA & NAUTICA]
You can give love, you can get love
Long as you love what you got!

[BRIDGET (& ENSEMBLE)]
I’m gonna french kiss with tongue
Like I dreamed I'd do
(Hoo, hoo, hoo!)
And not just with my pillow
But with you-know-who
(You-know-who!)

[NAUTICA]
You got the spirit now girl, dang!

[LA CIENEGA]
Look at all the joy you brang!

[BRIDGET]
Now I'm gonna end it with a bang

[ENSEMBLE]
Whoo!

[BRIDGET]
It ain't no thang!

[ENSEMBLE]
Na na na na, hey hey—
Na na na na, hey hey—

[BRIDGET]
I mean it ain't no thing!

[ENSEMBLE]
Na na na! hey hey!
Na na na! hey hey!

[BRIDGET]
No, it ain't no thing!

[ENSEMBLE]
No, it ain't

[ALL]
No, it ain't

[NAUTICA, spoken]
Now you go find that boy and tell him you are free Friday night

[BRIDGET, spoken]
Gosh darn it, I will!

[LA CIENEGA, spoken]
Ooh, language, honey child, please!

[BRIDGET]
It ain't no thing!
