[Intro]
Yeah-ah-ah
Al-right
Oh yeah-ah

[Verse 1]
Young man, young man
What will you do with your life?
Young man, young man
Will you turn left or right?
So many choices so many decisions
Which one will you choose to be living?
Yeah, the choice is up to you
Yeah!

[Bridge]
Take a step back, relax, Kanak
And don't rush into the act 'til you get the facts, yeah
Take the time to make up your mind
And look at the big picture and then you'll find
That you, have made a good choice

[Chorus 1]
Because you did the right thing
You done it, yes, you did it
See now get it with you
I'm so glad, you did the right thing
When nobody was looking
Didn't go take the cookie
I'm so glad, you did the right thing
And this is why I sing (and this is why I sing)
Look at the joy that you bring
Yeah-ah, look at the joy that you bring
Alright
[Verse 2]
Princess, princess
Which direction will you choose?
Princess, my princess girl
Will you go to work or just cruise?
So many options and so many ways
For you to spend your days
I, just want you to spend it, wiser

[Bridge]
Take a step back, relax, Kanak
And don't rush into the act 'til you get the facts, yeah
Take the time to make up your mind
And look at the big picture and then you'll find
That you, have made a good choice

[Chorus 2]
Because you did the right thing
You done it, yes, you did it
See now get it with you
I'm so glad, you did the right thing
When nobody was looking
Didn't go take the cookie
I'm so glad, you did the right thing
And this is why I sing (and this is why I sing)
Look at the joy that you bring
Yeah-ah, look at the joy that you bring
When you do the right thing
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I, I really got so much trust in you
I, recognize the things you do

[Chorus 3]
Because you did the right thing
You done it, yes, you did it
See now get it with you
I'm so glad, you did the right thing
When nobody was looking
Didn't go take the cookie
I'm so glad, you did the right thing
You done it, yes, you did it
See now get it with you
I'm so glad, you did the right thing
When nobody was looking
You didn't take the cookie, yeah-ah-ah
'Cause you did the right thing
Look at the joy that you bring
When you do the right thing
Look at the joy, look at the joy, look at the joy-
