Be young, be foolish, but be happy Be young, be foolish, but be happy
Don't let the rain get you down, it's a waste of time A waste of time Have your fun, live everyday in the bright sunshine The bright sunshine
Well it's the same old story all over the world Girl meets boy, and boy meets girl
So be young, be foolish, but be happy Be young, be foolish, but be happy
Don't let love slip away, slip away Live your life for today, for today
Life is too short to worry about unimportant things Unimportant things Reach for the sky, touch your star, and then you find your dream Find your dream
Cause dreamin' alone, it's a shame indeed But if you got love that's all you need
So be young, be foolish, girl be happy Be young, be foolish, girl stay happy
