==Lyrics==
Johnny:
Once upon a time there was a Sprite named Blue
And before him stood a mountain high
Birdies:
Mountain high
Johnny:
He heard the mountaintop had quite an excellent view
Of the different kinds of birdies that fly
Birdies:
Me, oh my
Johnny:
Though to watch birdies fly was a thing he adored
He'd never climbed up anything so high before
He wanted to climb, but he ran off instead
Till a little voice inside him said
Ginger:
What?
Johnny and Birdies:
Give it a try
Give it a try
Trying is important
And he's telling you why
Johnny:
You'd be amazed how far you go
Johnny and Birdies:
But if you don't take a chance, my friend, you'll never know
Johnny:
Once upon a time there was a Sprite named Sue
And her neighbor had her over for tea
Birdies:
Have some tea
Johnny:
And for a little snack
She made spaghetti stew
From her grandma's family recipe
Birdies:
Recipe
Johnny:
Though she loved having tea
And was having a ball
She'd never tasted something like spaghetti stew at all
She picked up her fork, then screamed and ran away
Till a little voice began to say
Ginger:
What?
Johnny and Birdies:
Give it a try
Give it a try
Take the fear inside you and just kiss it goodbye
Tasting new things is what life's all about
But if you don't take a bite, my friend, you'll never find out
Johnny:
You can climb a mountain
Birdies:
Mountain, mountain
Johnny:
You can eat spaghetti
Birdies:
Mmm, s'g'hetti
Ginger:
Act like Johnny's mommy?
Birdies:
Mommy, mommy
Johnny:
Ginger, are you ready?
Ginger:
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
I'm gonna give it a try
Give it a try
Trying is important
Johnny and Birdies:
And she's telling you why
Johnny:
If you don't take a chance
Soon that chance might be gone
Ginger:
So I'll take a chance and tell you
The show must go on!
Johnny:
Did you hear that, guys?
Johnny and Birdies:
She's gonna give it a try
Ginger:
Ready or not, world, here I come!
