Every time you take a leap There’s someone pulling on your shoe To pull you back and try to keep You from doing what you do Naysayers! Jealous ones, Block-your-sun, Wreck-your-fun Gloom mayors The ones who simply won’t believe You hold the power to achieve But they don’t know what you can do How strong you are, they don’t know you So we won’t let them in our way We’ll pay no mind to nayers’ say They’ll have to judge us from afar For they don’t know just what we are: No-fretters Can’t-bother-me Get-off-my-tree “I-will-succeed” Go-getters Soon enough they’ll surely see Just how mighty we can be
