Ooh ooh ooh
Shouldn't fade out
Imaginative technique
The news has caught you
You and my emotions
They say we got in trouble
I tried to be the real one (yup)
By the minute, by the hour (okay)
Hey, what are you afraid of?
You shouldn't be so afraid to be afraid
So won't you say "don't be afraid"
You shouldn't be so afraid
To be afraid
So won't you say "don't be afraid"
You couldn't get it if you tried man
You couldn't buy it if you had a million dollars
And if you were a rich man (yup)
All the younger people say you rock'n rollers
You gotta stop, why not?
Why not?
Say say say say say
Say say say say say
Say what
Say what (why not?)
You gotta stop what now?
Say say say say say
Say say say say say
Say what
Say what (why not?)
Shouldn't fade out
Imaginative technique (yup)
Put your records on Sade
Shouldn't be so afraid to lock
Tick tock on your sentence
Said you're living your life in place
I know you got a lot of things
I know you and you're living in shit, no pot to piss in
They came for you optimists, you losers
You activists, who do you fight for
You shouldn't be so afraid to be afraid
So won't you say "don't be afraid"
You shouldn't be so afraid
Don't be afraid
So won't you say "don't be afraid"
You couldn't get it if you tried man
You couldn't buy it if you had a million dollars
And if you were a rich man (yup)
All the younger people say you rock'n rollers
You gotta stop, why not?
Why not?
Say say say say say
Say say say say say
Say what
Say what (why not?)
You gotta stop, why not?
Ooh
You couldn't have it if you tried a million ways
You couldn't see it if you why'd a million changes
And if you were rich (yup)
Then you could probably say "they all are poorer"
You gotta stop and why not?
I know
You can do it, Russ
And why not? (yup)
You gotta stop (why not?)
(Yo, yo... who's better?)
(Okay)
What now?
What now? (Yup)
(Yup)
(Okay)
(Yup)
