Everybody Says Don't

(альбом: Back To Broadway - 1993)

Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
Everybody says
Don't it isn't right
Don't it isn't nice
Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
Everybody says
Don't walk on the grass
Don't disturb the peace
Don't skate on the ice

Well, I say do
I say
Walk on the grass
It was meant to feel
I say sail
Tilt at the windmill
And if you fail you fail

Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
Everybody says
Don't get out of line
When they say that then
Lady that's a sign
Nine times out of ten
Lady your doing just fine

Make just a ripple
Come on be brave
This time a ripple
Next time a wave

Sometimes you have to start small
Climbing the tiniest wall
Maybe your going to fall
But it's better than not starting at all

Everybody says no
Stop musn't rock the boat
Musn't touch a thing

Everybody says don't
Everybody says wait
Everybody says can't fight city hall
Can't upset the court
Can't laugh at the king

Well, I say try
I say
Laugh at the king till it makes you cry
Loose your poise
Fall if you have to
But lady make a noise
Yes

Everybody says don't
Everybody says can't
Everybody says wait around for miracles
That's the way the world is made

I insist on miracles
If you do them
Miracles
Knock on to them
I say don't
Don't be afraid
