Pick Yourself Up (Remastered)

Please teacher, teach me something.

Nice teacher, teach me something.

I'm as awkward as a camel.

That's not the worst.

My two feet haven't met yet.

But I'll be teacher's pet yet,

'Cause I'm going to learn to dance or burst.

Nothing's impossible, I have found.

For when my chin is on the ground,

I pick myself up, dust myself off,

Start all over again.

Don't lose your confidence if you slip.

Be grateful for a pleasant trip,

And pick yourself up; dust yourself off;

Start all over again.

Work like a soul inspired

'Til the battle of the day is won.

You may be sick and tired,

But you'll be a man, my son.

Will you remember the famous men

Who had to fall to rise again.

So take a deep breath;

Pick yourself up;

Dust yourself off;

Start all over again.

I'll get some self assurance

If your endurance is great.

I'll learn by easy stages

If you're courageous and wait.

To feel the strength I want to,

I must hang onto your hand.

Maybe by the time I'm fifty,

I'll get up and do a nifty.

(dialogue)

Pick yourself up; dust yourself off;

Start all over again.
