Lyrics
Chorus:
Let’s go!
Try it and see.
You’ve got nothing to lose.
The choice is yours.
You can choose.
The choice is yours.
You can choose.
Just try it and see.
What’s there to lose?
The choice is yours.
You can choose.
The choice is yours.
You can choose.
Hear now, I’ve got something to tell.
To tell, not sell, no preaching here, mate.
So chill, be still, for just a short time.
A few minutes are mine, to play with this rhyme.
Look, maybe say s’thing never heard before.
Tune in to my story, so what’s the score?
It’s six to nothing; could be six somethings.
It’s up to you; can you make these six sing?
Look, six bits. More than money can buy. Why?
They make your life bright, make your life right.
Six guidelines in poetry.. poetry.
So open your heart and listen to me.
So be nice, that’s the first one, mate.
Be cool. Just cooperate.
Yeah. And don’t be rude.
It’s very, very simple.
Yeah Buddhists are gentle.
Chorus:
Let’s go!
Try it and see.
You’ve got nothing to lose.
The choice is yours.
You can choose.
The choice is yours.
You can choose.
Just try it and see.
What’s there to lose?
The choice is yours.
You can choose.
The choice is yours.
You can choose.
Second be generous, that’s a must.
No greed. Let go of stuff!
Let go of all that clutters your mind,
And there’s nothing missing, I bet you find that.
The third, in a word is contentment,
Be satisfied, no resentment.
Not seeking anything more than you’ve got.
When you think about it, it’s quite a lot.
Look, the fourth of the six is to fix your ego,
Be unselfish, give it a go.
Make yourself egoless.
And be eager to get out of this mess.
The fifth one now, give up the gains,
Stop keepin’ the score, stop keepin’ the score
Share with those in need,
And let others have more.
Chorus:
Let’s go!
Try it and see.
You’ve got nothing to lose.
The choice is yours.
You can choose.
The choice is yours.
You can choose.
Just try it and see.
What’s there to lose?
The choice is yours.
You can choose.
The choice is yours.
You can choose.
And last but not least, tell the truth,
Do not lie to get by.
We all have a conscience that won’t keep still.
So it never works, that’s why.
So that’s what the six are all about.
But how to make them sing only you can find out.
You can make the world better and live to tell
By who you are and who you become.
It’s your turn now. My time is done.
