Hey sister, bright sister Find another way to speak Speak your mind If they don't listen to you Try sister, sly sister To find another fate to cheat One that won't hurt If they don't listen to your speak
If you speak Speak your mind If you speak Use your mind It's your time
I may be telling you the wrong views I could be teaching from the wrong schools You could be reaching for the ceiling This could be confidence for fools How do you choose
It's your shake (What are you gonna) Now shake in time (What are you gonna) Take your step (What are you gonna) Up to the line (Do down there) It's your take Now take your time It's your shake (What are you gonna) Now shake in time (What are you gonna) Take your step (What are you gonna) Up to the line
Hey sister Whoa sister Get up off your hands and knees Show your mind Did they forget to ask you Please sister, oh please sister Your money isn't quite that blue Give some head Hey sister this is how you bruise
If you speak Then speak your mind Use your head Not your behind Use your mind
You may be showing us the wrong view You could be learning from the wrong schools You should be hanging from the ceiling It should be condifential
It's your shake (What are you gonna) Now shake in time (What are you gonna) Take your step (What are you gonna) Up to the line (Do down there) It's your take Now take your time It's your shake (What are you gonna) Now shake in time (What are you gonna) Take your step up (What are you gonna) To the line
