Verse

We’ve got to say something
Say it loud and clear
Say something
So that he can hear
Say something
And rebuke the lies
Say something
Don’t trivialise

We’ve got to say something
When we see the wrong
Say something
If we’re weak or strong
Say something
While we still know how
Say something
the time is now

Don’t you know it’s time to make a fuss
When the country’s falling down
It’s true what they say you’ll get the whole circus
If you elect a clown

We’ve got to say something
It’s what words are for
Say something
And then say some more
Say something
When we’re still free
Say something
About liberty

What about Navalny and Mandella
and Martin Luther King
They show us, whatever the cost
We’ve got to say something

We’ve got to say something
Maybe every day
Say something
Till this goes away
Say something
To call it out
Say something
Or maybe shout!

When your faced with a cult - or up against a clan
When it’s rotten to the core
We’ve got to speak up got to make a plan
Say something when you can take no more

You’ve got to say something
And help people speak
Say something
To support the weak
Say something
Remember the past
Say something
So that truth can last

It’s a well known fact that tyranny thrives
In the false comfort of apathy
We’ll need to stand - need to speak up
To protect our sanity…

If you don’t say something
Then accept your fate
Say nothing
You’ll find out it’s too late
Say nothing
And you’ll loose the choice
Say nothing
And you’ll lose your voice

We’ve got to say something
If we don’t feel safe
Pray something
If we have the faith
Say something
‘Cause if we don’t say
This nightmare
Ain’t going away
