don’t be loud
as part of the crowd
it’s not your play
mr. nice guy
it’s not the time
to be yourself
sit up straight
you can’t be late
money’s the thing
money’s your thing
we’d love to stay in school forever
while all the training there won’t matter
’cause there’s a world outside for worse or better
na, na, na, na, na…
they won’t hear
a thing you say
you don’t speak up
mr. good guy
thank you again
and off they go
what’s the use and
where’s your gain?
and then it’s all said and done
you can feel that it’s so wrong
still it’s plain to be yourself
a good book is all you need for help
through the crowd
and all around
don’t give way
mr. bad guy
it’s your time
go rock that stage
don’t stand in line
to wait your turn
courage’s the key
courage’s your key
we’d love to stay in school forever
while all the training there won’t matter
’cause there’s a world outside for worse or better
na, na, na, na, na…
