any 1 remember this https://youtube/watch?v=KdQbb3FXSEI 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, never mind You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth Until theyve faded but trust me, in 20 years, youll look back At photos of yourself and recall in a way you cant grasp now How much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked You are not as fat as you imagine Dont worry about the future Or know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind The kind that blindsides you at 4 p.m. on some idle Tuesday Do one thing every day that scares you *Sing Chorus* Dont be reckless with other peoples hearts Dont put up with people who are reckless with yours Floss Dont waste your time on jealousy Sometimes youre ahead, sometimes youre behind The race is long and in the end, its only with yourself Remember 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 Dont feel guilty if you dont know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didnt know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still dont Get plenty of calcium Be kind to your knees Youll miss them when theyre gone Maybe youll marry, maybe you wont Maybe youll have children, maybe you wont Maybe youll divorce at 40, maybe youll dance the Funky Chicken On your 75th wedding anniversary Whatever you do, dont congratulate yourself too much Or berate yourself either Your choices are half chance, so are everybody elses Enjoy your body, use it every way you can Dont be afraid of it or what other people think of it Its the greatest instrument youll ever own Dance, even if you have nowhere to do it but your own living room Read the directions even if you dont follow them Do not read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly *Sing Chorus* Get to know your parents, you never know when theyll be gone for good Be nice to your siblings, theyre your best link to your past And the people most likely to stick with you in the future Understand that friends come and go But a precious few, who should hold on Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle For as 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, youll fantasize that when you were young Prices were reasonable, politicians were noble And children respected their elders Respect your elders Dont expect anyone else to support you Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe youll have a wealthy spouse But you never know when either one might run out Dont mess too much with your hair Or by the time youre 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 its worth But trust me on the sunscreen *Sing Chorus* Read more: Baz Luhrmann - Everybodys Free (to Wear Sunscreen) Lyrics | MetroLyrics
