Wake up in the morning,
feelin' shy and lonely,
gee, I gotta go to school
I don't think I can make it,
don't think I can take it
I wonder what I'm gonna do

But then I look around and see
that someone's smiling right at me,
wait! That someone's talkin' to me,
hey, I've got a new friend!

Everybody can succeed,
all you need is to believe,
be honest with yourself,
forget your fears and doubts,
come on give us a try
