I Whistle A Happy Tune

Whenever I feel afraid,

I hold my head erect

And whistle a happy tune,

So no-one will suspect

I'm afraid.



While shiverin' in my shoes,

I strike a careless pose

And whistle a happy tune,

So 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 every 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!



Whenever I feel afraid,

I hold my head erect

And whistle a happy tune,

So no-one will suspect

I'm afraid.
