Everbody's Free (to Wear Sunscreen) Lyrics - Singles - Baz Luhrmann

Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of '99 

Wear Sunscreen 

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, 

Sunscreen would be it 

The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists 

whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience... 

I will dispense this advice now... 

 

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth 

oh nevermind; 

you will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded 

But trust me, in 20 years you'll look back at photos of yourself 

and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before 

you and how fabulous you really looked...

You are not as fat as you imagine 

Don't worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as 

effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum 

The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that 

never crossed your worried mind 

 

the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday 

 

Do one thing everyday that scares you 

 

Sing 

Don't be reckless with other people's hearts 

 

don't put up with people who are reckless with yours 

 

Floss 

Don't waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind... 

 

the race is long, and in the end, it's only with yourself 

Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults 

 

if you succeed in doing this, tell me how 

 

Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements

Stretch 

Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life... 

the most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives 

some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don't 

 

Get plenty of calcium 

Be kind to your knees, you'll miss them when they're gone 

Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't 

maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't 

maybe you'll divorce at 40, maybe you'll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding 

anniversary... 

what ever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either 

your choices are half chance, so are everybody else's 

 

Enjoy your body 

 

use it every way you can... 

 

don't be afraid of it, or what other people think of it 

 

it's the greatest instrument you'll ever own 

 

Dance...even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room 

Read the directions, even if you don't follow them 

Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly 

 

Get to know your parents, you never know when they'll be gone for good 

Be nice to your siblings 

they are the best link to your past 

and the people most likely to stick with you in the future 

 

Understand that friends come and go, but for the precious few you should hold on 

Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle 

 

because the older you get 

the more you need the people you knew when you were young 

Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard 

live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft 

Travel 

Accept certain inalienable truths 

prices will rise 

politicians will philander 

you too will get old, and when you do you'll fantasize that when you were young 

prices were reasonable 

politicians were noble 

and children respected their elders 

Respect your elders 

Don't expect anyone else to support you 

Maybe you have a trust fund 

maybe you have a wealthy spouse 

but you never know when either one might run out 

Don't mess too much with your hair 

or by the time you're 40, it will look 85 

Be careful whose advice you buy, but 

be patient with those who supply it 

Advice is a form of nostalgia 

dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off 

painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth 

But trust me on the sunscreen
