Whenever I feel afraid, I hold my head erect.
And whistle a happy tune, So noone will suspect I'm afraid.
While shivering in my shoes,
I strike a careless pose, and whistle a happy tune, And no one ever knows I'm afraid.
The result of this deception, Is very strange to tell, For when I fool the people I fear, I fool myself as well.
I whistle a happy tune, and every single time, The happiness in the tune convinces me that I'm not afraid.
Make believe you're brave, and the trick will take you far.
You may be as brave, as you make believe you are. You may be as brave, as you make believe you are! I think that's a very good idea mother, a very good idea.
Yes it is a good idea isn't it.
I don't think I shall ever be afraid again.
Good. The result of this deception, is very strange to tell for when I fool the people I fear, I fool myself as well.
I whistle a happy tune, and every single time.
The happiness in the tune, convinces me that I'm not afraid.
Make believe you're brave, and the trick will take you far.
You may be as brave, as you make believe you are. You may be as brave, as you make believe you are!
