You keep telling me yes
But you don´t mean it
You keep telling me no
And try to lean it
You´re giving me buts and maybe
You know this will drive me crazy
Why can´t you tell it like it is

Let your yeah be yeah and your no be no, now
Let your yeah be yeah and your no be no, now
Becuse I´m on my guard and I´m watching you from head to toe
You better let your yeah be yeah and your no be no

You wear a plastic smile
I know by you eyes
You speak with indefinite style
You´re telling me lies
You´ve got to face reality
What is wrong with you and me
Why can´t you free your honesty

Let your yeah be yeah and your no be no, now
Let your yeah be yeah and your no be no, now
Becuse I´m on my guard and I´m watching you from head to toe
You better let your yeah be yeah and your no be no
