You Don't Have To Yell - Chris Rice

Written by：Chris Rice

So called reality right there on my TV

If that's how life's supposed to be

Well somebody's lying

The camera's on and we can tell

To keep your fame you have to yell

'Cause tensions build and products sell

And we're all buying

I hope we're smarter than this

Everybody take a breath

Why are all your faces red

We're missing all the words you said

You don't have to yell

Draw your lines and choose your side

Cause many things are worth the fight

But louder doesn't make you right

You don't have to yell oh

You don't have to yell

You don't have to yell

I tuned in to hear the news

I don't want your point of view

If that's the best that you can do

Then something's missing

And experts on whatever side

You plug your ears you scream your lines

You claim to have an open mind

But nobody's listening

Don't you think we're smarter than this

Everybody take a breath

Why are all your faces red

We're missing all the words you said

You don't have to yell

Draw your lines and choose your side

Cause many things are worth the fight

But louder doesn't make you right

You don't have to yell

You don't have to yell

You don't have to yell

Everybody take a breath

Why are all your faces red

We're missing all the words you said

You don't have to yell

If everyone will take the step

Back away and count to ten

Clear your mind and start again

We won't have to yell

Draw your lines and choose your side

Cause many things are worth the fight

But louder doesn't make you right

You don't have to yell

You don't have to yell

You don't have to yell

You don't have to yell
