if you don't lend a hand when a hand needs lending who will

if you don't help your friends when the need befriending who will

when nothing goes right and everything's wrong

when the days are too cold

and the nights are too long

if you won't be there to stand and be strong who will



if you don't risk your neck when a risk needs taking who will

if you don't brake the rules when the rules needs breaking who will

you gotta be tough

and forthright and square

you can't hide your head and pretend you're not there

if we don't fight for what's right and what's fair

who will



everyone has a hero hiding deep inside

waiting to appear

but there is no time left to hide

the moment is now

the place is here



who will risk life and limb

just to help a stranger i will

who will walk through the dark

even though there's danger i will

who'll stay by your side

and take up the cause

who'll give you his strength

his heart and his paws

who'll be your back

your buddy

your friend

we will



fievel and nellie and tony and tiger

we will
