They say I say

Letra

Sometimes people say things That aren’t so kind, And the perfect little comeback Can be hard to find. You don’t have to be mean, You don’t have to hide, Stand tall, stay cool, Let those words slide! A little bit cheeky, A little bit smart, Here are some comebacks To keep in your heart! [CHORUS] They say… HEY! I say… OKAY! I don’t let their words Ruin my day! Stand tall, stay cool, Know what to say, Bounce those comments Right back their way! They say… THIS! I say… THAT! Quick little comeback, Then I bounce right back! ⸻ [VERSE 1] They say: “Who even cares what you say?” I say: “You seem pretty interested anyway!” They say: “Everyone thinks you’re annoying, you know!” I say: “I’m not here to impress everyone, so!” They say: “Your drawing is ugly, it’s really not great!” I say: “Good thing I like it, so I’m feeling great!” They say: “You’re embarrassing, everyone can see!” I say: “Just keeping life interesting, that’s me!” ⸻ [CHORUS] They say… HEY! I say… OKAY! I don’t let their words Ruin my day! Stand tall, stay cool, Know what to say, Bounce those comments Right back their way! They say… THIS! I say… THAT! Quick little comeback, Then I bounce right back! ⸻ [VERSE 2] They say: “Why do you dress like that every day?” I say: “Well, I have to wear something anyway!” They say: “You’re weird, you’re strange, it’s true!” I say: “I call it a special talent, wouldn’t you?” They say: “Nobody likes you, everyone agrees!” I say: “Wow, you interviewed everybody? Geez!” They say: “You can’t do a cartwheel, not even one!” I say: “I’ve got plenty of other talents that are fun!” ⸻ [BREAK] Ooh, they threw a comment, But I didn’t let it stick, No arguing, no getting mean, Just calm, confident and quick! I don’t have to fight back, I don’t have to attack, I can stand up for myself With a clever comeback! ⸻ [VERSE 3] They say: “You can’t play with us today!” I say: “That’s okay, I’ll find another way!” They say: “You’re not very good, you haven’t got it yet!” I say: “You said it yourself… YET!” YET! ⸻ [BIG FINAL CHORUS] They say… HEY! I say… OKAY! I don’t let their words Ruin my day! Stand tall, stay cool, Know what to say, Their words don’t get To get in my way! A little bit cheeky, A little bit smart, I know who I am, And I know my heart! They say… THIS! I say… THAT! Quick little comeback… AND I BOUNCE RIGHT BACK!
