[Verse 1: Women, Men, Women & Men]
*Whistling*
Whenever I feel afraid
I hold my head erect
And whistle a happy tune
So no one will suspect
I'm afraid
While shivering in my shoes
I strike a careless pose
And whistle a happy tune
And no one ever knows
I'm afraid

The result of this deception
Is very strange to tell
For when I fool the people I fear
I fool myself as well
I whistle a happy tune (I whistle a happy tune)
And every singlе time (And every singlе time )
The happiness in the tune
Convinces me that I'm
Not afraid

[Bridge: Women & Men]
Make believe you're brave
And the trick will take you far
You may be as brave
As you make believe you are
*Whistling*

You may be as brave
As you make believe you are

[Verse 2: Women & Men]
The result of this deception
Is very strange to tell
For when I fool the people I fear
I fool myself as well
Whenever I feel afraid
I hold my head erect
And whistle a happy tune
So no one will suspect
I'm afraid

[Bridge: Women & Men]
Make believe you're brave
And the trick will take you far
You may be as brave
As you make believe you are

*Whistling*
You may be as brave
As you make believe you are
