JOXER
Whenever I feel afraid, as a warrior should not be
I whistle a mighty tune in hopes that they won't see
I'm not brave
While shivering in my boots, I strike a heroic pose
And whistle a mighty tune, so nobody should know
I'm afraid!
The result of this deception
I am not quite sure to tell
I may not fool the people I fear
But that may be just as well!
I whistle a mighty tune and more often than not
The mightiness in that tune convinces me to not
Run away!
Just pretend you're brave
C'mon, try it, you'll go far
You might find you're brave
Braver than you thought you were!
[whistles tune to the lyrics “Joxer the mighty / He roams through the countryside”]
You might find you're brave
Braver than you thought you were!
[whistles tune to the lyrics “He's Joxer! / He's Joxer the mighty!”]
