Lyrics[]

Lone Star version[]

Sydney:
Some people wanna cut down trees
Some people wanna dig for gold
Other people seek a new idea
‘Cause they’re made of something bold
I’m not afraid of new ideas
I know I can’t deny ‘em
The best things come from new ideas
If folks would only try ‘em

Jet & Sydney:
Some people run from new ideas
We like to embrace ‘em
Old ideas got to move aside
So the new ones can replace ‘em
I’m not afraid of new ideas
I know I can’t deny 'em
The world could be better than it is
When you’re not afraid of new ideas

Galileo, Galileo version[]

Sean:
Well…
Some folks say that the world is flat
The edge is very scary
But me, I say the world is round
Exactly the contrary
The same folks say the sun is circling
Earth is at the center
But I say we orbit around the sun
‘Cause I’m a scientist
And a hypothesis inventor

Jet:
We’re not afraid of new ideas
We know we can’t deny ‘em
The best things come from new ideas
If folks would only try ‘em

All:
Some people run from new ideas
But we like to embrace ‘em
Old ideas ought to go
So new ones can replace ‘em
I’m not afraid of new ideas
I know I can’t deny ‘em
The best things come from new ideas
If folks would only try ‘em
Don’t be scared of new ideas
Explore them to a letter
The world could be much better
When we’re not afraid of new ideas!

Galileo, Galileo version (reprise)[]

All:
I’m not afraid of new ideas
I know I can’t deny ‘em
The best things come from new ideas
If folks would only try ‘em
Don’t be scared of new ideas
Explore them to a letter
The world could be much better
When we’re not afraid of new ideas!

Trivia[]

  • Both of the episodes that this song was featured in were about one of the kids portraying a scientist who was cast aside by society for having correct ideas that were deemed unorthodox at the time.
