Andrew Gold
Gotta Believe In Pumpkins
Alvin:
Hey, Dave, what's the matter?

Dave:
It's your room, Alvin
It's absolutely hopeless

Alvin:
Ah Dave, nothing's hopeless

Sometimes I wonder what's gone wrong
Most folks have lost their spark
Life without a ray of hope
Sure can get mighty dark

Dave:
Like your room

Alvin:
And as I started thinking
Why life had turned so blue
I saw a book of fairy tales
And suddenly I knew

Dave:
But Alvin...
Alvin:
Listen to me!

You gotta believe in pumpkins
If you want to go to the ball
Don't stop yourself from havin' a little
And you can have it all

C'mon guys!

The Chipmunks:
Faith is just like planting seeds
They help your dreams come true
Believe in what's around you
And good things will come to you

Dave:
Very nice, fellas
But Alvin, I've been on you about your room for weeks
I've grounded you
I don't know what else to do

Alvin:
Now and then your gonna feel
Stuck in darker booths
But throw those feelings out the door
And remember Mother Goose
Because life is what you make it
Dave:
But Alvin...

Alvin:
You can fly or you can fail

Dave:
This room!

Alvin:
Yes, create a world of dreams come true
And life will fill your sail

Dave:
That's true, but a...

Alvin:
Everybody!

The Chipmunks & Choir:
You gotta believe in pumpkins

Alvin:
Yes you do

The Chipmunks & Choir:
If you want to go to the ball
Don't stop yourself from havin' the moon
And you can have it all
Dave:
Alvin, where did all these people come from?

The Chipmunks & Choir:
Faith is just like planting seeds
They help your dreams come true

Alvin:
Sing it now!

The Chipmunks & Choir:
Believe in what's around you
And good things will come

Alvin:
Yes it will!

(Repeat)

The Chipmunks & Choir:
Believe in what's around you
And good things will come to you

Dave:
That's wonderful, fellas
So Alvin, let's clean up this room now?
Ah, Alvin. Alvin!
ALVIN!!
