The Lyrics
Happy 90th B'day, Mr. Rogers!
[[1st Verse:]]
There was a man who speaks
In a calm voice
He had hosted his show for 33
Straight years
Educational just like Sesame Street
His show ended just right before 9/11
Telling the kids how to be safe
Mr. Rogers is not talking irony around here.
His soul tells me just this one phrase:
Expect the really unexpected!
[[Chorus:]]
You really got only one life to live
Be inspired to reach the highest goals in your life
This was the power of Mr. Rogers
You make your days special by just being you!
Ooh-ooh
[[2nd Verse:]]
A good feeling to see him on TV
His soul healed the hurting issues in children's lives
A blessed day in the neighborhood
His soul enriched children all across the United States
And abroad
Mr. Rogers also prepared kids
To expect all human-related outcomes
[[Chorus:]]
[[Instrumental Break:]]
We will still love you Mr. Rogers!
[[Chorus, first 2 Lines:]]
This was the power of Mr. Rogers (x5)
We still miss you for the lessons you taught to kids!
Ooh-ooh
There was a man who speaks
In a calm voice
He had hosted his show for 33
Straight years
Educational just like Sesame Street
His show ended just right before 9/11
Telling the kids how to be safe
Mr. Rogers is not talking irony around here.
His soul tells me just this one phrase:
Expect the really unexpected!
[[Chorus:]]
You really got only one life to live
Be inspired to reach the highest goals in your life
This was the power of Mr. Rogers
You make your days special by just being you!
Ooh-ooh
[[2nd Verse:]]
A good feeling to see him on TV
His soul healed the hurting issues in children's lives
A blessed day in the neighborhood
His soul enriched children all across the United States
And abroad
Mr. Rogers also prepared kids
To expect all human-related outcomes
[[Chorus:]]
[[Instrumental Break:]]
We will still love you Mr. Rogers!
[[Chorus, first 2 Lines:]]
This was the power of Mr. Rogers (x5)
We still miss you for the lessons you taught to kids!
Ooh-ooh
This is also the 50th anniversary of his eponymous show, which ran on PBS for 33 years (1968-2001.)
