《thanks monica》的詞曲由美國歌手布蘭迪·卡莉(Brandy)完成,其歌詞如下:
第一小節:
I don't know about you but here's what's on my mind
Got a lot of things I need to say and I ain't afraid to sing
I'm so proud of who I am
But sometimes I feel like I'm all alone
副歌:
So thanks, monica
For showing me what it means to be strong
And thanks, monica
For showing me what it takes to be along
第二小節:
I ain't seen the world, but I know what I've been through
Got my own dreams and my own style and I ain't gonna lose
Got my eyes on the prize, gonna keep on trying
Gonna take my time, gonna make it flying
副歌:
So thanks, monica
For showing me what it means to be strong
And thanks, monica
For showing me what it takes to be along
過渡節奏:
And I'm standing here today, looking back at the days
All the pain, all the grind, it all led me to this day
So thanks, monica
For showing me what it means to be true
And thanks, monica
For being the best friend that I could be through
副歌:
So thanks, monica
For showing me what it means to be strong
And thanks, monica
For showing me what it takes to be along
(在這裡的總結結尾部分,Brandy 會再次唱到這樣的副歌部分)
