Yes

(album: Liza With A "Z" - 1972)

(Ladies and gentlemen, Liza Minnelli)

Yes, say, "Yes"
Life keeps happening everyday
Say, "Yes"
When opportunity comes your way
You can't start wondering what to say
You'll never win if you never play
Say, "Yes"

There's mink and marigolds right outside
And warm white Cadillacs you can ride
Nothin's gained if there's nothing tried
Say, "Yes"
Don't say, "Why?" say, "Why not?"
What lies beyond what is, is not
So what?
Say, "Yes"

Yes, I can, yes, I will
Yes, I'll take a sip, Yes, I'll touch
Yes of course, yes, how nice
Yes, I'll happily, thank you very much
Yes, oh, oh, yes

Yes, there's lots of chaff, there's lots of wheat, yes
You might get mugged as you walk the streets
But on the other hand you might greet
That handsome stranger you've longed to meet, say, "Yes"

Yes, I'll look, yes, I'll walk
Yes, I'd love to do such and such
Yes, I'll try, yes, I'll dare
Yes, I'll fly, yes, I'll share
And yes, I am and yes, I'll be
And yes, I'll go, oh, yes, yes
