You keep telling me yes
|
But you don't mean it
|
You keep telling me no
|
And try to lean it
|
|
You're giving me buts and maybe
|
You know this will drive me crazy
|
Why can't you tell it like it is?
|
|
And let your yeah be yeah
|
And your no be no, now
|
Let your yeah be yeah
|
And your no be no, now
|
|
Because I'm on my guard and
|
I'm watching you from head to toe
|
So that let your yeah be yeah
|
And your no be no
|
|
You wear a plastic smile
|
I know by your eyes
|
You speak with indefinite style
|
You're telling me lies
|
|
You've got to face reality
|
What is wrong with you and me?
|
Why can't you free your honesty?
|
|
And let your yeah be yeah
|
And your no be no, now
|
Let your yeah be yeah
|
And your no be no, now
|
|
Because I'm on my guard and
|
I'm watching you from head to toe
|
So you better let your yeah be yeah
|
And your no be no
|
|
You keep telling me yes
|
But you don't mean it
|
You keep telling me no
|
And try to lean it
|
|
You're giving me buts and maybe
|
You know this will drive me crazy
|
Why can't you tell it like it is?
|
|
You better let your yeah be yeah
|
And your no be no, now
|
Let your yeah be yeah
|
And your no be no, now
|
|

Let Your Yeah Be Yeah
