lyrics

Knowing when to behave and to be polite
Knowing when to speak your mind and keep your mouth shut tight

Knowing when to stop and when to rewind
Knowing when enough is enough is enough is only slight

Knowing when to cut loose even if you're uptight
Knowing when to leave and when to stay overnight

Knowing when there is a bounty and when there is a blight
Knowing when there is hope even when there's no hope in sight


Nothing's solid and nothing's striped
Nothing's black and white


Knowing when you're wrong even when you're right
Knowing when to run and when to stay and fight

Knowing when to calm and when to excite
Knowing when the powder keg is about to ignite

Knowing when to chew and when to take a bite
Knowing when something's new and something is tried

Knowing when to add and when to divide
Knowing when a yes is a maybe and a no is a might


Nothing's dull and nothing's bright
Nothing's blind nothing has sight

Nothing upsets nothing delights
There's nothing to love nothing to spite

When nothing's black and white
