[Chorus]
It takes all kinds of people to make the world just right
Every color, dream, and number, every shape and height
It takes all kinds of people to make a joyful sound
High and low and young and old, you know, it makes the world go round
[Verse 1]
If the farmer didn't grow the wheat
The truck driver couldn't drive it to the street
Where the baker bakes my favorite treat
That chocolate cake I love to eat
And if the dentist didn't say "open please"
I'd have a whole mouth full of cavities
Then every meal would be
Brussels sprouts and peas
But chocolate tastes better even llama grease
[Chorus]
It takes all kinds of people to make the world just right (Ooh)
Every color, dream, and number, every shape and height (Ooh)
It takes all kinds of people to make a joyful sound (Ooh)
High and low and young and old, you know, it makes the world go round (Ooh)
[Verse 2]
If my annoying little brother didn't keep me up late
I wouldn't have spied on my brother's sister on a date
And I might have done my homework and set my dog eight
But things wouldn't have turned out so great
'Cause if I'd made it to the corner in time for carpool
If the principal didn't make that stupid rule
If my teacher couldn't keep me after school
Then I wouldn't have met my new friend, and he's cool
[Chorus]
It takes all kinds of people to make the world just right (Ooh)
Every color, dream and number, every shape and height (Ooh)
It takes all kinds of people to make a joyful sound (Ooh)
High and low and young and old, you know, it makes the world go round (Ooh)
[Bridge]
If everyone else was just like me
The world would be a boring place to be
But everybody's different thankfully
[Chorus]
It takes all kinds of people to make the world just right
Every color, dream, and number, every shape and height (Ooh)
It takes all kinds of people to make a joyful sound (Ooh)
High and low and young and old, you know, it makes the world go round
It takes all kinds of people to make the world just right (Ooh)
Every color, dream, and number, every shape and height (Ooh)
It takes all kinds of people to make a joyful sound (Ooh)
High and low and young and old, you know, it makes the world go round (Ooh)
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, you know it makes the world go round
