lyrics

Respect

It's a beautiful world we're living in
But nothing's guaranteed
Whether you're young or old or rich or poor
There's something we all need
Every colour, shape and creed

Respect - raise your expectations, accept no limitations,
Every generation – respect!
Respect - your family, your community,
Keep your integrity – respect!
Sometimes you've got to give more than you get
But we'll make a better future yet – respect!

If you're stuck in a tricky situation,
There's pressure all around
It might be hard to do the right thing,
But you've got to stand your ground
Step out of the crowd

Respect - raise your expectations, accept no limitations,
Every generation – respect!
Respect - your family, your community,
Keep your integrity – respect!
Sometimes you've got to give more than you get
But we'll make a better future yet – respect!

Hay reaper, clean sweeper, time keeper, late sleeper,
Take a leap of faith now – respect!

Cake maker, code breaker, risk taker, head shaker,
Step up to the plate now – respect!

High rider, low rider, insider, outsider,
Don't be good, be great now – respect!

Not just a little bit, not just a little bit, not just a little bit,
Give it more, more, more -

Respect - raise your expectations, accept no limitations,
Every generation – respect!
Respect - your family, your community,
Keep your integrity – respect!
Respect - raise your expectations, accept no limitations,
Every generation – respect!
Respect - your family, your community,
Keep your integrity – respect!
It's what the world needs now
