In time for International Women’s Day, this song and its lyrics contain a message for this moment. The opening alone is EVERYTHANG and has the power to eclipse the “original intent” of the song.

I’m every woman, it’s all in me

Anything you want done, baby

I’ll do it naturally

 

Check out the video featuring Chaka Khan with Idina Menzel.

Here are the lyrics – reimagined and re-membered.

Soak it all in and enjoy because YOU’RE EVERY WOMAN! Yaaassss!

I’m every woman, it’s all in me
Anything you want done, baby
I’ll do it naturally
I’m every woman, it’s all in me
I can read your thoughts right now
Every one from A to Z

I can cast a spell
With secrets you can’t tell
Mix a special brew
Put fire inside of you
But anytime you feel
Danger or fear
Instantly I will appear, ’cause

I can sense your needs
Like rain on to the seeds

I can make a rhyme
Of confusion in your mind
And when it comes down
To some good old fashioned love
That’s what I’ve got plenty of, ’cause

I ain’t braggin’ ’cause I’m the one
You just ask me ooh and it shall be done
And don’t bother to compare
‘Cause I’ve got it
I’ve got it, I’ve got it, yeah

I’m every woman (repeat and fade)
