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
And evey single time
The happiness in that tune
Convinces me that I'm
Not afraid

Make believe you're brave
And the trick will take you far
You may be as brave
As you make believe you are
You may be as brave
As you make believe you are
