Lyrics
- Thomas: Nobody has to be the favourite
- It's not a competition in the end
- It doesn't matter if you prove that you're the very best
- But what will happen when you put your friendship to the test
- Never mind about who is the favourite
- The most important thing is being friends!
- Thomas and James: The most important thing is being friends!
- Theo and Lexi: Everybody can help! Everybody join in! When everybody has a part to play
- Hurricane: Then everybody can win!
- Theo, Lexi, Merlin and Frankie: Everybody can help!
- Red, green, yellow or blue!
- When you're ready to try
- You'll find out what you can do!
- Thomas, James and Beresford: Everybody can help!
- What I'm saying is true!
- When you give it a try
- You'll find out what you can do!
- Thomas and James: Nobody has to be the favourite
- It's not a competition in the end
- It doesn't matter if you prove
- That you're the very best
- But what will happen when you
- Put your friendship to the test
- Never mind about
- Who is the favourite
- The most important thing
- is being friends
- Nobody has to be the favourite
- (Everybody can help)
- It's not a competition in the end
- (Everybody join in)
- The Steam Team and Sir Topham Hatt: It doesn't matter if you prove
- That you're the very best
- Gordon: Everybody can win!
- The Steam Team: But what will happen when you
- Put your friendship to the test
- Hurricane: Never mind about who is the favourite
- Theo, Frankie, Hurricane, Merlin and Lexi: The most important thing
- is being friends!
- The Steam Team: The most important thing
- is being friends!
