Doris Day - Be Prepared

Be prepared
Help an old lady cross the street
Be prepared always be sure your room is neat
Be prepared
Get up and give someone your seat
And you'll be a real good scout!

Be prepared
Carry a girl's books home from school
Be prepared
Don't lose your temper, play it cool
Be prepared always obey the golden rule
And you'll be a real good scout!
So, listen to your dad and mother
And learn that one good
Turn deserves another!

Be prepared help with the dishes every night
Be prepared
Try shakin' hands and stop a fight
Be prepared
Remember two wrongs don't make a right
There isn't any doubt
That you'll be a real good scout!

Be prepared
Light up a fire with just two sticks
Be prepared
Find something broken you can fix
Be prepared
Smile at the teacher just for kicks
And you'll be a real good scout!

Be prepared like everybody every place
Be prepared love every colour, creed or race
Be prepared xxxx? xxxx? xxxx? or outer space
And you'll be a real good scout!
Just love thy neighbour like a brother
You'll find that one good
Turn deserves another!

Be prepared always be kind to dogs and cats
Be prepared
All of our doors have welcome mats
Be prepared
It's great to be alive, and that's
Something to sing about
It's fun to be a real good scout!
