i'm nothing special in fact i'm a bit of a bore

if i tell a joke you've probably heard it before

but i have a talent a wonderful thing

cause everyone listens when i start to sing

i'm so grateful and proud

all i want is to sing it out loud

so i say

thank you for the music the songs i'm singing

thanks for all the joy they're bringing

who can live without it i ask in all honesty

what would life be

without a song or a dance what are we

so i say thank you for the music

for giving it to me

mother says i was a dancer before i could walk

she says i began to sing long before i could talk

and i've often wondered how did it all start

who found out that nothing can capture a heart

like a melody can

well whoever it was i'm a fan

so i say

thank you for the music the songs i'm singing

thanks for all the joy they're bringing

who can live without it i ask in all honesty

what would life be

without a song or a dance what are we

so i say thank you for the music

for giving it to me

i've been so lucky i am the girl with golden hair

i wanna sing it out to everybody

what a joy what a life what a chance

thank you for the music the songs i'm singing

thanks for all the joy they're bringing

who can live without it i ask in all honesty

what would life be

without a song or a dance what are we

so i say thank you for the music

for giving it to me

so i say thank you for the music

for giving it to me
