To Be Surprised Lyrics
I'm not going to say
That you ever stop to think along the way
But baby, be prepared to be surprised
Baby, be prepared to be surprised
It's all I know
I'm not going to state
Obvious observations everybody makes
But baby, be prepared to be surprised
Baby, be prepared to be surprised
You better be prepared to be surprised
It's all I know
The weight of the world
And the hurt and the dirt
Can make you disturbed
But I heard, but I heard
When I wrap my arms around you
Every mistake we made crumbles
When I wrap my arms around you
Everything echoes a new song
I'm not gonna whine
Or scream out I'm so tired
Through the mike
But baby, be prepared to be surprised
Baby, be prepared to be surprised
You got to be prepared to be surprised
It's all I know
The weight of the world
And the hurt and the dirt
Can make you disturbed
But I heard, but I heard
When I wrap my arms around you
Every mistake we made crumbles
When I wrap my arms around you
Everything echoes a new song
I'm not gonna lie
Saying everyone's gonna be alright
And fine until we die
But what else can you do
But hope and pray and save
And we'll get by
Be prepared to be surprised
Better be prepared to be surprised
You got to be prepared to be surprised
It's all I know
That you ever stop to think along the way
But baby, be prepared to be surprised
Baby, be prepared to be surprised
It's all I know
Obvious observations everybody makes
But baby, be prepared to be surprised
Baby, be prepared to be surprised
You better be prepared to be surprised
It's all I know
And the hurt and the dirt
Can make you disturbed
But I heard, but I heard
When I wrap my arms around you
Every mistake we made crumbles
When I wrap my arms around you
Everything echoes a new song
Or scream out I'm so tired
Through the mike
But baby, be prepared to be surprised
Baby, be prepared to be surprised
You got to be prepared to be surprised
It's all I know
And the hurt and the dirt
Can make you disturbed
But I heard, but I heard
When I wrap my arms around you
Every mistake we made crumbles
When I wrap my arms around you
Everything echoes a new song
Saying everyone's gonna be alright
And fine until we die
But what else can you do
But hope and pray and save
And we'll get by
Better be prepared to be surprised
You got to be prepared to be surprised
It's all I know

The second I hear the intro of this song I start smiling. It is so adorable and fantastic, I can't describe it :D It's killer-cute!
amazing all over: lyrics, instrumentation, vocals. Sondre Lerche did a great job on the soundtrack!
The basic point of the song is that planning your life out can only get you so far, because you never know what's to come. So "be prepared to be surprised", that is, be flexible and you'll handle what life throws at you much better.
Agreed.
