Learn To Say No
Learn To Say No

I – I – I – I – I gotta learn to say no, say no,
I – I – I – I – I gotta learn to go slow, go slow
I’m a one man band
God gave me two good hands
One thing they didn’t teach ya was
How the hell can you teach a preacher?

I – I – I – I – I gotta learn to say no, say no,
I – I – I – I – I gotta learn to go slow, go slow
You told me once – I gave you no response
Told me twice – Didn’t take your advice
You could never be mean,
But if you get to three, one of us will scream

I – I – I – I – I gotta learn to say no, say no,
I – I – I – I – I gotta learn to go slow, go slow

There’ll be no more stalling
There’s a big world calling
Fasten your seat-belt, strap it in tight
Get ready for the ride of your life

I – I – I – I – I gotta learn to say no, say no,
I – I – I – I – I gotta learn to go slow, go slow
Take off the Emperor’s Clothes
Time to smell that rose
Stop the nothing-talking
Unless I want to end up a dead-man-walking

I – I – I – I – I gotta learn to say no, say no,
I – I – I – I – I gotta learn to go slow, go slow
I – I – I – I – I gotta learn to say no, say no,
I – I – I – I – I gotta learn to go slow, go slow
