Be - Slade

But be wary of the slyman oh baby

Be guidance to the blindman

And be thankful to the kind man oh baby

Be scintillating, aggravating, penetrating, over rating

Baby don’t you know

Be hostess with the mostest to

Whoever comes the closest

Oh baby don’t you know

Be faithful to the true man

Sympathetic to the blue man oh baby

Be dwarf against the tall man oh baby

Be a giant against the small man oh baby

Be scrutinizing, tantalizing, appertizing

Full moon-rising

Baby don’t you know

Be mistress with a history of mystery and twistery

Oh baby don’t you know

Stand up, stand up, stand up and be yourself

Stand up, stand up, don’t be nobody else

Cos me well you see, I don’t need nobody else

Be beauty for the plain man

But be sane for the insane man

Oh baby don’t you know

Be dirty for the clean man

But be shirty for the obscene man

Oh baby don’t you know

Be understanding, undemanding

Hand in hand happy landing

Baby don’t you know

Be harem, scarem, grin and bare em

Wash and wear em, do or dare em

Oh baby don’t you know

Stand up, stand up, stand up and be yourself

Stand up, stand up, don’t be nobody else

Cos me well you see, I don’t need nobody else

Be beauty for the plain man

And be sane for the insane man

And be faithful to the true man

Sympathetic to the blue man

Oh baby don’t you know

Be helpful to the shyman, and be wary of the slyman

Be guidance to the blindman, and be thankful to the kindman

Oh baby don’t you know

Be mistress with a history of mystery and twistery

Oh baby don’t you know

Be hostess with the mostess to whoever comes the closest

Oh baby don’t you know

Stand up, stand up, stand up and be yourself

Stand up, stand up, don’t be nobody else

Cos me well you see, I don’t need nobody else

Stand up, stand up, stand up…

Cos me, well you see

I’ll never find nobody else…

Cos me, well you see

I’ll never find nobody else

I’ll never find nobody else

I’ll never find nobody else

Like you — no no
