william finn - yes lyrics

[gordon]
and so, boys and girls, before i hop back to my lilypad, i leave you with one last thought

yes is a good word
no is a bad word
the preferred word
in any kind of situation is
yes, i can
oh, yes, i’d like to do that
yes, the world’s increasingly absurd

yes, yes
yes is a good word
yes, yes
yes is a very special word

it will be sung, i guarantee it
you’re gonna see it on tv
it will be sung
yes is a good word

[mr. bungee]
yes is a good word

[gordon]
no is a bad word

[mr. bungee]
no is a bad word

[gordon/mr. bungee]
the preferred word
in any kind of situation is

[mr. bungee]
yes, i will do that
yes, i will go there
yes, i will live a good and a true life
yes, i’ll survive
whatever you throw at me
yes, the world is grand
when there’s a moment
grab it and shake it
take it in your hand
yes, i will
yes, i can
yes, i might!
yes, i will put up an honest fight

[ensemble]
yes, i’ll be fearless

[mr. bungee]
yes, i’ll be fearless

[ensemble]
yes, i’ll be honest

[mr. bungee]
yes, i’ll be honest

[ensemble]
yes, i will live my life with emotion

[mr. bungee]
live with emotion

[ensemble]
yes, i’ll have courage
yes, and devotion
yes, i will survive

[mr. bungee]
yes is the word that opens the door
to being most alive

[ensemble]
yes!

[mr. bungee]
there’s joy

[ensemble]
yes!

[mr. bungee]
there’s love

[ensemble]
yes!

[mr. bungee]
yes, there’s zing!
yes, i absolutely have to sing

[mr. bungee/ensemble]
yes, yes, yes

[mr. bungee]
is a good word

[ensemble]
yes, yes, yes

[mr. bungee/ensemble]
yes, yes
yes is a very special word

[mr. bungee]
except when a stranger says
“get into my car.”
say no

[ensemble]
no!

[mr. bungee]
or when someone says
“would you like to lose your virginity?”
someone with whom you have no affinity
say no, no
no, no
[ensemble]
no, no
no, no!
yes is a good word
no is a bad word… [mr. bungee]
no, no, no!
no, no, no!
what is this nonsense about virginity?
it’s a godd-mn children’s show!
i never know what the h-ll you’re writing about!
schwinn! shush!

[mr. bungee]
i want a song! yes, i will do my homework. yes, i will work in the garden. yes, i will go with my grandparents… to israel! instead i get this nonsense about someone who loses their virginity to those with whom they have no affinity? this is a godd-mn children’s show! alright, you’re sick, you’re in the hospital, you’ve got this brain thing. but you know what? you know what? i’m gonna get my son to write the song. where’s my son? hey! where’s my son?! somebody found my son? where’s my son?
