So you thought you had it made

You're looking like you made the grade

But you can't even prove it to your friends

Even if you did it wrong

You must believe your chance is strong

Before you go out turning peoples heads



I know behind that front you want to say the words

'cause you think that you might be

The best one in the world

I gave you all my answers

I love you like a friend

Now we'll see it through, yeah

We'll see it to the end



Stand up, don't you cry

Stand up, give me one good reason why

You shouldn't

Stand up, stand tall, stand up

Don't put your back against the wall

Because it's always worth the battle if you try



You're thinking that you have it made

But you're looking like you're still afraid

I know the way you dwell on what is wrong

Even if you think it's gone

Keep singing like a little song

That these doubts are what you'll hide



I know behind that front you want to say the words

'cause you think that you might be

The best one in the world

I gave you all my answers

I love you like a friend

Now we'll see it through, yeah

We'll see it to the end



Stand up, don't you cry

Stand up, give me one good reason why

You Shouldn't

Stand up, stand tall, stand up

Don't put your back against the wall

Because it's always worth the battle if you try
