wake up, you little boys and girls
and go and tell it to the whole wide world
'cause there's so much going on now
there's so much but there's so little time
for all the mysteries that you might find
you gotta go and chase them all down now

come on, you little girls and boys
i wanna hear ya'll make some noise
'cause this world is your playground
but there's a chance that you gotta take
and there's a wager that you gotta make
or you just might miss your chance now

'cause we've only got a little while
so you better send it with a smile
take out all unnecessary things
bringing you down
keeping you here
live well your life

if you have not that's 'cause you don't ask
so go take the world
everything before you, it's your task
so now that you know go take the world

'cause we've only got a little while
so you better send it with a smile
take out all unnecessary things
bringing you down
keeping you here
live well your life
