Well you might walk tall,
You might walk strong,
You’ll never get to heaven with the sing of a song,
Because you’re wonderful,
You’re wonderful

Well you might walk tall,
You might walk strong,
You’ll never get to heaven with the sing of a song,
Because you’re wonderful,
You’re wonderful

Somebody’s gotta tell ya,
Somebody’s gotta tell ya,
You’re not doing fine.

So she couldn’t get any higher,
He couldn’t get any higher,
So you’re all alone

The end chorus is basically a mash up of everything else played in the song
