about

Richard the New Engine is a beloved fan-created character within the Thomas community, and over the past few years, fans have warmly embraced him. He seamlessly fits into the established universe and embodies kindness and optimism, which aligns perfectly with the spirit of the Thomas community. Drawing inspiration from Richard's endearing qualities, I have crafted a song that I am thrilled to now share with you. As always, I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed creating it.

lyrics

(1st Verse)
You may feel like a million bucks
as you roll along your line
But someone will always have something to say
that isn’t kind
in the face of folks like that
I’ve learned one sure fire way
to get em off your back
and send them on their merry way

(Chorus)
Ya Gotta Kill Em With Kindness
Treat others the way you wanna be treated
Ya Gotta
Ya Gotta
Ya Gotta Kill Em With Kindness
Ya Gotta
Ya Gotta
Ya Gotta Kill Em With Kindness

(2nd Verse)
You can’t let anyone turn your blue skies
oh so grey
stand your ground with a smile
even when the frowns are in your face
If someone chooses anger over joy
it’s not a problem of yours my boy
Keep your head up
and roll on with your life

(Bridge)
The higher road
is not always the easiest to take
but being bold with your kindness
is the bravest step
one can make
wear your smile like a royal crown
and sing your song
with kindness in your heart
you’ll soon find where you belong

(Chorus)
Yeah Ya Gotta Kill Em With Kindness
Treat others the way you wanna be treated
Ya Gotta
Ya Gotta
Ya Gotta Kill Em With Kindness
Yeah Ya Gotta
Yeah Ya Gotta
Yeah Ya Gotta Kill Em With Kindness
Yeah Ya Gotta
Yeah Ya Gotta
Yeah Ya Gotta Kill Em With Kindness
Ya Gotta
Ya Gotta
Ya Gotta Kill Em With Kindness
