I said

I said girl you can be whatever you want to be
You are untouchable don’t let them rub your thoughts in the dirt

I said boy you can be whatever you want to be you are untouchable
Don’t let them rub your thoughts in the dirt
Chorus:
If ever you feel depressed and everybody thinks you’re a mess
Oh keep your head up, keep your head up

I said girl you can change whatever you want to change
You are unbeatable don’t let them bring your dreams down to the ground

I said boy you can change whatever you want to change
You are unbeatable don’t let them bring your dreams down to the ground

Chorus:
If ever you feel depressed and everybody thinks you’re a mess (an-an)
Oh keep your head up, keep your head up

Bridge (music)

You said Sir. I can be whatever I want to be
I am grateful, I must not let myself bring others down

You said boy I can be whatever I want to be
I’m thankful, I must not let myself bring others down

Chorus
If ever you feel depressed and everybody thinks you’re a mess (an-an)
Oh keep your head up, keep your head up
