I've had a plan, I'm starting today

I won't let these obstacles get in my way

When I am down and I'm feeling alone

I know what I've got to do

When I see blocks in the road up ahead

I won't get frustrated or turn back instead

I'll wait just a moment and take a deep breath

There's an easy thing to do

Counting one, two, three and four

I won't let all these silly things bug me no more

Counting five, six, seven, eight, nine and ten

I will calm myself down and be happy again

I don't want to see pain or darkness no more

If I had the power I'd make it the law

To bottle the raindrops and banish the clouds

Let the sun shine through, that is what I got to go

Counting one, two, three and four

I won't let all these silly things bug me no more

Counting five, six, seven, eight, nine and ten

I will count myself lucky and be happy again

Counting one, two, three and four

I won't let all these silly things bug me no more

Counting five, six, seven, eight, nine and ten

If I'm not feeling right I'll start over again

Counting one, two, three and four

I won't let all these silly things bug me no more

Counting five, six, seven, eight, nine and ten

I'll add up all the good, leave no room for the bad to get in
