Stand!

JUNIOR
My mommy always told me to do what’s right,
To wash behind my ears and try to be polite!
Ya see, she loves me so…

NEZZER
That’s beautiful!

JUNIOR
That’s why she tells me what I need to know!

NEZZER
I’ve got a lotta respect for that woman!

JUNIOR
But sometimes when I’m playing with a buddy or two,
they’re doing things I know I’m not supposed to do!

NEZZER
Well, do you go along?
Even though the things they do are wrong?

JUNIOR
Mmm, mmm!
I remember …
Stand!

PEAS
Stand up!  Stand up!

JUNIOR
For what you believe in, believe in, believe in!
God…

BACKUP BOYS
He’s the one to back you up!

JUNIOR
…will stand with you!

BOB
When everybody tells you that you gotta be cool,
remember what you learned in church and Sunday School!
Just check it out!
The Bible tells us what it’s all about!

NEZZER
Oh, you know that’s right!

LARRY
So if you have a question, go ask your dad!
And he can tell you if a thing is good or bad!
You’ll make their day
if you remember what your parents say!

NEZZER
Wha’d they say?

BOB, LARRY, JUNIOR
They told us …
Stand!

PEAS
Stand up!  Stand up!

BOB, LARRY, JUNIOR
For what you believe in, believe in, believe in!
God…

PEAS
He’s the one to back you up!

BOB, LARRY, JUNIOR
…will stand with you!

ALL
Stand!

PEAS
Stand up!  Stand up!

ALL
For what you believe in, believe in, believe in!
God…

PEAS
He’s the one to back you up!

ALL
…will stand with you.

JUNIOR
He’ll stand with you.  Oh yeah!
