Hold your head up high
Like the most happy fella
While down below each thigh
Apropos a propeller
Must keep paddling like the clappers
You keel paddling with your flappers
While seeming to be dreaming and calm
Like this?
That's the way
Bend your knees
No splashing please
Sorry
And steady watch that eddy to your right, Danger sign
Danger Sign?
That's fishing line
Fishing line?
Which strangles if it tangles you up tight
He's a natural in a class of his own
This is wonderful I am feeling full grown
You have every reason to
Hold your head up high
As if free from all troubles
Your back stays nice and dry
But my bottom's in bubbles
You keep paddling like the clappers
Just keep paddling with your flappers
While seeming to be dreaming and calm
Just beneath the surface
You may struggle to get by
But nothing can deter you
Both: If you hold your head up high
