Nic Martin - Play It Safe lyrics

[Intro: Kids] Good morning Mr Sentry! [Verse 1: Seth Sentry] Good morning kids, thanks for the warm welcome You too, Mr Nelson, you look well for a thousand It really brought back feelings of fear when that bell rung Such an honour to be back in a school that I was expelled from Yeah, hopefully this might inspire and help some Stick with your education, you'll never make it without one Sound fun? Well f** fun, the world's a dangerous place You'll never make it out alive, so just play it safe Okay, now write down all your dreams on this circle of paper Okay, now scribble that sh** out if that work doesn't pay well Money is everything so let it bring you merriment Become obsessed with it and make the same mistakes your parents did (Okay) So get a sh**ty job that makes you sick and tired Then rent a little box so you can think inside it Don't live like I did, don't follow what your pa**ion is Or else you might have nothing but your happiness, just play it safe [Hook: Kids] I'm by myself inside my little safe world I'm inside my door, there's all too much I don't know If I go out I might not ever come home (Ooh) I might not ever come home so I'll just do what I'm told [Pre-Verse Ad-Libs: Seth Sentry] Alright, calm down. Oy [Verse 2: Seth Sentry] I saw that you all were bored during this morning's talk You all are drawn to the world and want to explore it all Every mountain, every forest, every waterfall Don't worry, you will learn to worry more when you are more mature 'Cause you could fall right off a mountain, forests are full of wolves Waterfalls are wet so you're probably best to avoid 'em all (Oooh) Yeah, fear is a part of being a grown adult Make sure that you're insured 'fore you think of walking towards the door 'Cause you could die just walking to the corner store You probably ought to stay at home and roll yourself in cotton wool Reinforce the walls, install a burglar alarm Purchase a gun and shoot the first person to walk on your lawn (Woah!) But keep an eye out for the pizza guy And watch the scary world through your Venetian blinds Now everybody say it with me, "Don't take risks 'cause risks are risky" Yeah, you're damn right, just play it safe [Hook: Kids] I'm by myself inside my little safe world I'm inside my door, there's all too much I don't know If I go out I might not ever come home (Ooh) I might not ever come home so I'll just do what I'm told [Verse 3: Seth Sentry] Dance like everyone is staring at you Love like you're scared of having your heart broke Live like you're scared of making mistakes And sing like you're being judged by a bunch of talentless arseholes At night time, lay awake in your little wooden bed And run through the entire day thinking of things you shoulda said Be afraid of trying new things, you should be scared All the time, you should try to live a life that you regret Yeah, I'm glad I got the chance to talk to you By now you're probably all confused and you just don't know what to do Yeah, life's a riddle, let me give you all a clue Go and do the opposite of everything I told you to, play it safe [Hook: Kids] I'm by myself inside my little safe world I'm inside my door, there's all too much I don't know If I go out I might not ever come home (Ooh) I might not ever come home so I'll just do what I'm told [Outro] Bop bop bop bop Yeah, by myself
