Lyrics

Sometimes in life, there are things you must do,

even though there not your favorite things.

Just smile, and who knows

if you see things through.

You can have some fun with them too!

We'd rather play outside. Have a good time,

then do the things we need to do.

We'd rather read a good book. Go and visit the zoo.

These are the things that we want to do!

Sometimes in life, there are things you must do,

even though there not your favorite things.

Just smile, and who knows

if you see things through.

You can have some fun with them too!

We'd rather ride our bikes around the park,

then do the things we need to do.

We can play pretend, build a castle or two.

These are the things that we want to do!

But, you know, doing the things we're supposed to do

makes you feel really good. Doesn't it?

Sometimes in life, there are things you must do,

even though there not your favorite things.

Just smile, and who knows

if you see things through.

You can have some fun with them too!

That's right! You can have some fun with them too!
