I Believe
Listen to Jonathan ...
I believe all sausages are laid by giant birds,
I believe each mountain goat knows how to say ten words,
I believe that yesterday was nothing but a dream,
I believe there lives an ‘I’ within the ‘T’ in Team,
I believe my feet smell great (and much better than yours),
I believe the dinosaurs knew how to open doors,
I believe bananas can be used to talk to trees,
I believe time does standstill, and jump about, and sneeze,
I believe potatoes come alive and dance at night,
I believe what I believe,
And I believe I’m right.
I believe each mountain goat knows how to say ten words,
I believe that yesterday was nothing but a dream,
I believe there lives an ‘I’ within the ‘T’ in Team,
I believe my feet smell great (and much better than yours),
I believe the dinosaurs knew how to open doors,
I believe bananas can be used to talk to trees,
I believe time does standstill, and jump about, and sneeze,
I believe potatoes come alive and dance at night,
I believe what I believe,
And I believe I’m right.
