I Think You Can

There's something that I'd like to do to take away your say. And tell you that you're no damn good, too lazy and too stray. For starters I would say to think of what you want to do. And tell you that of what you think your whole life's just a view. Then what I'd have to say to that is you aren't up for that. And tell you that your whole damn life has added up to scat. When you would think you're so damn bad you're dumb enough to say- "Why don't you think that I'll do that, and have my way today?" But we both know you're so damn sad you'll never do a thing. And only I know just to say You're not enough to spring. So here I go to save your azz and tell you you're to bring- you're dreams to be-to door to be and open up to swing. But you will say it's too damn hard and I will say you're right. And you will know I'm too damn tired to send a man to fight. So all I'll say is all I'll do is sing a song of might. And you will say I hear these words I sing to you tonight. I think you can, I think you can I think you can be light. I think you can, I think you can be everything that's right. I think you can, I think you can learn what it is to spright. I think you can, I think you can turn every thought to flight. I think you can, I think you can. That is what I'll say. I think you can, I think you can hear every word this way. I think you can, I think you can sing my song this way. I think you can, I think you can learn every song this way. I think you can.
