Lyrics

BIG and BOLD
Copyright 1993, Roger Yeardley

Some people say, "You know what THEY say"
All I want to know is... who is they?
and what do they know that I don't know,
they haven't lived my life, that's for sure.

Do the right thing, not what you've been told
Be there, big and bold.

Big Al he did all the right things,
what he was told he did everything.
Towin’ that line made him feel real small
now he's bold and standing tall.

Do the right thing, not what you've been sold
Be there, big and bold.

Big is more in than outside,
but sometimes the two they coincide.
Your frame your spirit can't contain,
but livin' small can make it tame.

Nancy she hung with the crowd
and only did what it allowed.
One day she just found her feet
taking her down a different street.
Do the right thing, not what you've been told
Be there, big and bold.

Bold's not pushy or unkind,
it's a be there state of mind.
Be like James and be "on the scene"
and let it out if you're a sex machine.

We all float along sometimes,
with the currents we align.
We must recognize the time,
to swim away and claim our lives.

Do the right thing, not what you've been sold
Be there, big and bold.
Do the right thing, not what you've been sold
Be there, big and bold.
