If people say good things about you, You can believe it. If they say something unkind, Pay it no mind. If they say something mean It's probably because They've got a bone Sticking in their craws. Tell them something nice, Give them some applause And they'll believe it, You can believe it. If people say good things about you, You can believe it. If they say something unkind, Pay it no mind. If they say something cruel That's meant to hurt your pride, They've surely got a thorn Sticking in their side. Just give them a smile That's honest, warm and wide And they'll believe it, You can believe it.
