Some People Just Can't Say No (I Can't Say Anything But)

​If you can't attend this season's fetes
Simply send in your regrets
When a guy needs your reply
You don't have to lie
Use the two-letter word that's so taboo
If I can say it, so can you

Some men will shrug politely
Other men will sit quietly
Some people just can't say no, I can't say anything but
Some ladies will say maybe
Others'll utter a "hm, we'll see"
Some people just can't say no, I can't say anything but

Silence is golden
Unless you're holdin' 
A ticket to your colleague's one-man show
You know you should go, 
But it fills you with dread
So you lie and say you're sick in bed instead

When I receive an invitation for a night out on the town
I am of the inclination to turn that invite down
In response to your rsvp, you don't need to guess
I won't need a party dress when I don't circle yes

When someone makes you a resistible offer
There's one answer that you can proffer
If you're prone to give the cold shoulder
Throw 'em a bone, be a bit bolder
Forget the brush off, don't simply rush off
Why keep 'em in suspense and make a situation tense
Give it go, deliver the blow and just say no

Vo-dee-oh-dee-oh-no
