Believe in Yourself is the theme song to the Arthur TV series performed by Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers. An instrumental version also plays over the end credits. The original recording is 1:51, but is shortened to about 1 minute for the opening theme and 45 seconds for the credits.
It was first made available on Arthur and Friends: The First Almost Real Not Live CD (or Tape), as the first track. A remix of the theme plays over the credits of Season 6 and was released on the album, Arthur's Really Rockin' Music Mix.
The theme was covered by the Backstreet Boys for the special, Arthur, It's Only Rock 'n' Roll.
Lyrics
Everyday when you're walking down the street,
And everybody that you meet
Has an original point of view
And I say hey! (Hey!)
What a wonderful kind of day
If we could learn to work and play
And get along with each other
You gotta listen to your heart, listen to the beat
Listen to the rhythm, the rhythm of the street
Open up your eyes, open up your ears
Get together and make things better,
By working together!
It's a simple message,
And it comes from the heart
Believe in yourself,
For that's the place to start
And I say hey! (Hey!)
What a wonderful kind of day,
If we could learn to work and play
And get along with each other
Hey! What a wonderful kind of day. Hey!
What a wonderful kind of day
Hey!
