Say yes, say no, jump off, lie down
Hold on, let go, a smile, a frown
The fear, the dream, the beat, the tune
The self esteem, the silver spoon

Lead on, be lead, give in, resist
The beast, the pet, the hand, the fist
The end, the start, the sun, the shade
The queen of hearts, the king of spades

The night, the day, to split, to share
And pay to play and truth or dare
And rant and rage and play it smooth
The golden cage, the naked truth

And dumb and smart and chance or fate
The head, the heart, too soon, too late
Aloud, alone, a saint, a fool
The danger zone, the golden rule

The blonde, the black, be good, be bad
The thrill, the bore, and mom and dad

.....

And I can't say no and I can't say yes
It's just another way of saying no, I guess
When you can't say no and you can't say yes
You leave a mess
