Lyrics Word to the Wise - Jewelle Blackman feat. Yvette Gonzalez-Nacer & Kay Trinidad
And
so,
the
poor
boy
asked
the
king
Can
we
go?
And
this
is
how
he
answered
him
I
don't
know
Gotta
think
quick
Gotta
save
face
Caught
between
a
rock
and
a
hard
place
Whatcha
gonna
do,
whatcha
gonna
do
Whatcha
gonna
do,
whatcha
gonna
do
now?
If
you
tell
him
no
Oh,
you're
a
heartless
man
And
you're
gonna
have
a
martyr
on
your
hands
If
you
let
him
go
Oh,
you're
a
spineless
king
And
you're
never
gonna
get
'em
in
line
again
Damned
if
you
don't
Damned
if
you
do
Whole
damn
nation's
watching
you
Whatcha
gonna
do,
whatcha
gonna
do
Whatcha
gonna
do,
whatcha
gonna
do
now?
Here's
a
little
tip
Word
to
the
wise
Here's
a
little
snippet
of
advice:
Men
are
fools
Oh,
men
are
frail
Give
them
the
rope
and
they'll
hang
themselves
