Hey young man lend me your ears
|
I¡¯ve got a few pearls to give away
|
If you wanna change the world, you¡¯re goin bout it wrong
|
It all starts with meaning what you say
|
|
Speak the truth but keep it short and keep it simple
|
Say it loud and say it whenever you can
|
Oh you¡¯re bound to be a lousy politician
|
But at least you¡¯ll be a decent man
|
|
One day soon your time will come
|
Be ready when you get the call
|
State your name and tell it like it is
|
You¡¯ll never fly if you¡¯re afraid to fall
|
|
Speak the truth but keep it short and keep it simple
|
Say it loud and say it whenever you can
|
Oh you¡¯ll never be a sought after attorney
|
But at least you¡¯ll be a decent man
|
|
It¡¯s a worlds full of liars a world full of thieves
|
And money makes them all go crazy
|
So keep your eyes wide open stay fixed upon the prize
|
And if it all starts gettin hazy
|
Remember what your Daddy says
|
|
Speak the truth but keep it short and keep it simple
|
Say it loud and say it whenever you can
|
Oh you¡¯ll never be a salesman of the year
|
But at least you¡¯ll be a decent man
|
But at least you¡¯ll be a decent man
|
