Celebrate Others (audio)

Chorus:
Celebrate! Celebrate!
Celebrate those around you
Celebrate! Celebrate!
Celebrate others' victories too!

You see,
You are special, and you deserve praise
For the things you do and the the things you say
But you are not the ONLY all-star kid
Acknowledge your friends and what THEY did


Verse 1:
Like when you're playing a game
and you want to win
but you got OUT and your best friend DIDN'T
Do you complain and pout a ton?
Or do you celebrate with your friend who won?

Verse 2:
Like when you notice your most unfavorite food
packed by your mom in your back pack
And you see that your friend
in the neighboring desk
has your all time favorite snack
Do you get all jealous or make mean eyes, or say things that are rude?
Or do you celebrate that your friend is going to enjoy some delicious food?

Verse 3:
Like when you're sitting in class, tryin' to be good
and you hope your teacher sees,
But your teacher points out your neighbor's good job and you're thinking,
"What about me?"
Do you get all mad- do you interrupt? Do you put the focus on YOU?
Or do you celebrate with your classmate then and recognize THEIR BREAK-THROUGH?

Verse 4:
Like when you're trying so hard to do the right thing
and be the student of the month
But then you hear your classmate's name
They got the award- You're stunned!
Do you get worked up and give a selfish glare right at your neighbor?
Or do you smile and congratulate them for having great behavior?
