It's up to you girl, and what you do
I can change the world, and you can too
Smile Smile Smile Smile Smile
We're here for a happier world
Try Try Try Try Try
to follow my example
So you boys and girls
We're gonna live, learn and dream
Love Love Love Love Love
Your body, soul, and mind
Why Why Why Why Why
May only have this chance
So we gotta live it right
Make time to live the good life
I can do anything,oh, if I put my mind to it and dream
Oh, Oh Baby
Just can't stop where we're at, there's too much future to fill
if I believe
Chorus
Youth can bring hope & peace
Do Re Me Hope & Peace
1-2-3 Hope & Peace
Simply said, given naturally
I will try to make a difference while I'm young
Focused on the positive and love
I'm happy as can be
Do Re Me as can be
1-2-3 as can be
Simply said, I'll share willingly
I have my whole life but starting while I'm young.
Now's the day, the process has begun
It's up to you girl, and what you do
I can change the world, and you can too
Smile Smile Smile Smile Smile
We're gonna change the world
Why Why Why Why Why
Wanna live the good life, so you boys and girls
Listen to my every word
I will start with me, then help my fellow man share joy and
peace oh, oh baby
We won't stop till it's done, we're gonna shed this kind of
light over the world.
