Always Be Safe

Be cautious, be prudent, be safe.
Don't ever take any risk.
You're a fool if you do,
      you may end up in the stew,
Always be safe.

Be patient, be prudent, be safe.
Always be bland.
Don't ever be loud,
      go along with the crowd,
Always be safe.

Be cautious, be prudent, be safe.
Forever strive to be pure.
Your voice may be stilled,
      you may even get killed.
Always be safe.

Be patient, be tolerant,be safe.
It's the only way to fly.
Don't ever take a stand
      or you might get canned.
Always be safe.

Be subtle, be obscure, be vague.
Don't let them know what you think.
If they know what you said
      they may knock off your head.
Always be safe.
