Play It Safe (Sydney Opera House 50th Anniversary) Tim Minchin (Ft. Cathy-Di Zhang, Courtney Act, Elma Kris, Jimmy Barnes, John Bell, Kira Puru, WILLIAM BARTON, Zahra Newman & Ziggy Ramo)
You've gotta keep it simple
Life is like a song
There are tunes that folk are used to
So if you want 'em to sing along
Just keep it simple
You oughta play it safe
Life is just a game
People like the rules as written
So just give 'em more of the same
No one likes a smart-arse (No one likes a smart-arse)
No one likes it complicated (You've gotta keep it simple)
If you want to go the distance
Find the path of least resistance
And just take it
You don't want to stick your neck out (You don't want to stick your neck out)
They'll take your head off if you do (They're gonna rip your head off)
Just sit up the back and judge others (Hey, sit down!)
It'll keep 'em from judging you
If you're too hard to stomach you'll never amount to nothing
Ain't that something?
No one cares what you have to say
Just shut up and play the role you're cast in (You've got to play the role you're cast in)
