| Say that you like me the way I am
|
| Just take some time out to understand
|
| It may not be much, but I do all I can
|
| Say something nice
|
| I’d never do it to one of you
|
| I’d say something nice if it wasn’t true
|
| I’d make you feel better when you’re feeling blue
|
| I’d say something nice
|
| Say something nice, only once or twice
|
| Say something nice, only once or twice
|
| Say something nice
|
| I wanna hear that I’m beautiful
|
| But you wouldn’t say it even if I were
|
| Wearing my diamonds and a coat of fur
|
| You wouldn’t say nothin' nice
|
| Tell me you think that my hair’s real nice
|
| Don’t stand around and just criticize
|
| Can’t you understand that when a person tries
|
| You say something nice
|
| And it’s oh so hard, oh so hard
|
| To listen to the words that you say
|
| Oh, say something nice, just once or twice
|
| It wouldn’t hurt, don’t you see
|
| I wanna hear something nice, say something nice
|
| Say something nice, just once or twice
|
| It don’t hurt you at all, say something nice
|
| Say something nice baby, only once or twice
|
| Say something nice
|
| Say something nice baby, only once or twice
|
| Say something nice
|
| Hey don’t you hear me, hey don’t you hear me
|
| Hey don’t you hear me, hey don’t you hear me
|
| Say something nice
|
| Say something nice
|
| And it’s oh so hard, and it’s oh so hard
|
| And I’m dying to hear what I’ve never heard (fade out) |
