Verse 1
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the fairest in the land?
That's not what interests me
Beauty is overrated
Only outward show
You're ugly, he's beautiful
That's a fast one, she's quick
A bit too fat doesn't seem so hot
Chorus 1
Isn't it time for your true self
Inner beauty is worth the most
Look at what you've gathered inside
It's inside
It's inside
It's inside
Deep inside
Verse 2
Mirror mirror on the wall
What's going on here?
Who's tattooed where?
With extensions, bleached
Tons of makeup, face lifted
Almost naked, just insane
Fake lips, strange smile
Anything goes, everything's allowed
Chorus 2
Isn't it time, show your true self
Inner beauty is worth the most
Look at what you've gathered inside
It's inside
It's inside
It's inside
Deep inside
Bridge
Who decides what's beautiful?
That's you alone
If you love yourself
Then you can
Believe me
Bridge
You can shine like a jewel
You don't need glitter, no, on the contrary
Even without rings on your hand
You're a pure diamond
Chorus 3
It's inside, it's inside
It's inside, right inside
It's inside
Chorus 3
Deep inside
It's inside
Outro
You can shine like a jewel
It's inside
Outro
You don't need glitter, no, on the contrary
It's inside
Inside
Deep inside
Outro
It's inside
It's inside
Outro
Right inside here

SONG MEANING

Mirror, mirror on the wall... Clouseau’s “Vanbinnen” flips the classic fairy-tale question on its head by asking us to stop obsessing over who looks the fairest and start celebrating what really shines: our inner sparkle. With playful rhymes and a catchy chorus (“Het zit vanbinnen” – “It’s on the inside”), the Belgian pop band pokes fun at plastic beauty trends, endless make-up, and flashy bling, reminding us that no amount of lip filler or designer glitter can outshine genuine confidence and kindness.

Instead of chasing the latest filter, Clouseau urges listeners to look at the unseen treasures they have already gathered inside – warmth, humor, empathy, and self-love. The song cheers, “If you love yourself, you can glitter like a jewel,” turning self-acceptance into the brightest accessory of all. In short, “Vanbinnen” is a feel-good anthem that swaps surface perfection for heartfelt authenticity and invites everyone to sparkle from within.
