Say No   
by
Corny Held

The world is cold outside
Go light a fire
The days are short and dark
burn your desire

How can you grab it
the spiralling of time
and freedom's just a statue
without soul, but it looks fine

So it's time to worry
what matters anyway
time to hurry
and save the world another day

it's time to hold
to decide who's friend or foe
and find a way against the tide
it's time now to say no
just say no
there are times, you know,
when you just got to say
no
say no

Make sure you have a home
when safety leaves
abundance vanishing
no birds, no bees, no trees

What can you cling to
what hope is there to seize
when love becomes a sacrifice
to please the God of greed

So it's time to worry
what matters anyway
time to hurry
and save the world another day

The eyes of vanity
Behind facades they glow
The scorn for life and peace
is flooding all the roads

in a sea of violence
it's good to own a boat
And wealth is but a faith
in bubbles that explode

but you can say no
Say no

Say no to hatred - no to greed
No exploitation - no vanity
No contempt - no agression
no malice - no hypocrisy

no violence - no indifference
no arrogance or ruthlessness or force
no evil - no betrayal
no destruction - no locked doors
Say no
