Please Be Upstanding

So you’re busy making plans, just because you got a
show of hands
These old ideas that you’re stealing, what you really
need is a new beginning
I want these words to be real, to let you know how much
i feel
I want these words to be true, to let you know how much
i knew
So please be upstanding, for good news and a happy
ending
So please be upstanding for good news and a happy
ending (x2)
Let’s get it straight from the start, a positive force in your
heart
In every way that you’re learning upon a new page we’re
turning
When you’re put to the test an expression of happiness
It’s a look that suits you best an expression of happiness
So please be upstanding, for good news and a happy
ending
So please be upstanding for good news and a happy
ending (x2)
So here’s the conclusion, one whole mass confusion
These old ideas you’ve been stealing have left us all
with a bitter feeling
Save those speeches, get a new perspective
When you’re put to the test don’t leave us with
emptiness

So please be upstanding, for good news and a happy
ending
So please be upstanding for good news and a happy
ending (x2)
Don’t let these good ideas run away from you, give them
for all to hear if you want them to……
