Everybody says don`t
Everybody says don`t
Everybody says don`t it isn`t right
Don`t is 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 till to 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
No times out of ten
Lady you are 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 you`re going to fall
But it is 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 or he`ll make 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 might come true,
Then I say don`t...
Don`t be afraid!
