There once was a guy His name was James But we'll call him Jim For the sake of conversation Jim was a guy Had something that he'd always wanted to do But everybody told him not to bother But life walked by and When it gave Jim a kick in the head A few times here and there And Jim always got up And wondered why it always offered up his face Don't throw your life away Come and take a look outside It's such a beautiful day Don't throw your life away Come and take a look outside It's such a beautiful day I used to know this girl called Sally She had fun in a Pretty unfun kind of way She used to sit in an office all day Make coffee and wished that she was doing something else And you see the thing about Sally is that Sally Had an amazing gift Something special to offer But because she never got up and never tried She never knew Don't throw your life away Come and take a look outside It's such a beautiful day Don't throw your life away Come and take a look outside It's such a beautiful day (Hello? Hello? Hello?) Now there's a lot of people out there And not all of them are right Some of them are wrong I'm not going to say which ones But we know who they are, oh yeah You know there's tall people, small people, wide people Narrow people, all different kinds of people And we could never know what they want And what's good for them But one thing we all know Is we know what we want Don't throw your life away Come and take a look outside It's such a beautiful day Don't throw your life away Come and take a look outside It's such a beautiful day
