People who think they can
I want to be just like those 
Who think they can
I want to be not so far away 
From where I'd planned to be by now 
Time has a bad habit of flying 
I was sleeping when it passed me by

I was dreaming of what 
I would wear when I got there
It's not easy being green 
In a world where you have to

Tread on other people 
Just to find a place 
To put your wares on
Show it's not required 

That you sing, write or play 
Just wear the tightest one 
And smile in that certain way and
Think you can

I want to be not so far away 
From where I planned to be
Good things come to those who wait 
I'm going to lift my head 

And keep my back up straight 
And when it matters most 
And I can't be found I'll just
Climb to the top 

And you will find me 
Hanging around with 
People who think they can
