Give It A Try

Johnny:
Once upon a time there was a Sprite named Blue
And before him stood a mountain high

Birdies:
Mountain high

Johnny:
He heard the mountaintop had quite an excellent view
Of the different kinds of birdies that fly

Birdies:
Me, oh my

Johnny:
Though to watch birdies fly was a thing he adored
He'd never climbed up anything so high before
He wanted to climb, but he ran off instead
Till a little voice inside him said

Ginger:
What?

Johnny and Birdies:
Give it a try
Give it a try
Trying is important
And he’s telling you why

Johnny:
You'd be amazed how far you go

Johnny and Birdies:
But if you don't take a chance, my friend, you’ll never know

Johnny:
Once upon a time there was a Sprite named Sue
And her neighbor had her over for tea

Birdies:
Have some tea

Johnny:
And for a little snack
She made spaghetti stew
From her grandma's family recipe

Birdies:
Recipe

Johnny:
Though she loved having tea
And was having a ball
She'd never tasted something like spaghetti stew at all
She picked up her fork, then screamed and ran away
Till a little voice began to say

Ginger:
What?

Johnny and Birdies:
Give it a try
Give it a try
Take the fear inside you and just kiss it goodbye
Tasting new things is what life's all about
But if you don't take a bite, my friend, you'll never find out

Johnny:
You can climb a mountain

Birdies:
Mountain, mountain

Johnny:
You can eat spaghetti

Birdies:
Mmm, s'g'hetti

Ginger:
Act like Johnny’s mommy?

Birdies:
Mommy, mommy

Johnny:
Ginger, are you ready?

Ginger:
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
I’m gonna give it a try
Give it a try
Trying is important

Johnny and Birdies:
And she's telling you why

Johnny:
If you don’t take a chance
Soon that chance might be gone

Ginger:
So I'll take a chance and tell you
The show must go on!

Johnny:
Did you hear that, guys?

Johnny and Birdies:
She's gonna give it a try

Ginger:
Ready or not, world, here I come!
