King And I Soundtrack I Whistle A Happy Tune Lyrics

I Whistle A Happy Tune Lyrics

Anna

 Whenever I feel afraid

 I hold my head erect

 And whistle a happy tune

 So no one will suspect

 I'm Afraid.

 While shivering in my shoes

 I strike a careless pose

 And whistle a happy tune

 And no one ever knows I'm afraid.

 The result of this deception

 Is very strange to tell

 For when I fool the people I fear

 I fool myself as well!

 I whistle a happy tune

 And ev'ry single time

 The happiness in the tune

 Convinces me that I'm not afraid.

 Make believe you're brave

 And the trick will take you far.

 You may be as brave

 As you make believe you are

 [Louis and Anna whistle the tune of 

 "Make believe you're brave

 And the trick will take you far".]

 

 Anna

 You may be as brave

 As you make believe you are!

 

 Louis

 [Spoken]

 I think it is a very good idea, mother, a very good idea!

 

 Anna

 Yes, it is a good idea, isn't it!

 

 Louis

 I do think I shall never be afraid again!

 

 Anna

 Good!!!

 [Sung]

 

 Louis and Anna

 The result of this deception

 Is very strange to tell

 For when I fool the people I fear

 I fool myself as well!

 I whistle a happy tune

 And ev'ry single time

 The happiness in the tune

 Convinces me that I'm not afraid.

 

 Make believe you're brave

 And the trick will take you far.

 You may be as brave

 As you make believe you are-

 You may be as brave

 As you make believe you are!

 

 [Louis and Anna whistle as above until 

 interrupted by Captain Orton]
