[Verse 1] Chill out, take heed on what you talk about Then think twice, no need to lie or sacrifice the truth It hurts, but you need to listen to your country Now’s the time, show compassion for the sake of us all [Chorus] Stand back, take in the view Protesters in your backyard and they’re calling on you To do the right thing, stop telling those lies The people want some honest so just give it a try [Verse 2] Perhaps you need to take a little quiet time for yourself Resist the urge to share information you have not yet vetted Seek the truth, you will find that facts are your friends If your logic is sound, you can watch the media back on down [Chorus] Stand back, take in the view Protesters in your backyard and they’re calling on you To do the right thing, stop telling those lies The people want some honest so just give it a try [Chorus] Stand back, take in the view Protesters in your backyard and they’re calling on you To do the right thing, stop telling those lies The people want some honest so just give it a try [Bridge] You’ve got to slow down; make sure your feet are on the ground You’ve got to stay true, ‘cause telling the truth won’t let us down Choose wisely, we get so few second chances in this life So please hear me, take this message and save yourself for me…for us [Chorus] Stand back, take in the view Protesters in your backyard and they’re calling on you To do the right thing, stop telling those lies The people want some honest so just give it a try [Chorus] Stand back, take in the view Protesters in your backyard and they’re calling on you To do the right thing, stop telling those lies The people want some honest so just give it a try
