When you feel like something’s tickling your nose
And you really, really, really wanna sneeze
Don’t hold it back, that’s the way it goes
When you really, really, really wanna sneeze
Don’t be shy (Achoo!)
Don’t be shy (Achoo!)
When you really, really, really wanna sneeze
Wipe your nose (Achoo!)
Wipe your nose (Achoo!)
When you really, really, really wanna sneeze
When you’re sniffing all the flowers and you’re playing in the sun
And you really, really, really wanna sneeze
You can cover up your mouth, wash your hands when you’re done
When you really, really, really wanna sneeze
If you’re allergic or you’re sick, or you’re tickled by a feather
And you really, really, really wanna sneeze
Don’t worry too much, it could just be the weather
When you really, really, really wanna sneeze
