Respect Yourself Songtext
von The Selecter

If you disrespect everybody that you run into
Well, how in the world can anybody respect you?
If you don′t give a fuck about the quality of life you're living
And a gun in your hand is a way for you to do your thing

Are you the kind of man who wants everything to go your way?
Take the sheet off your face, boy, it′s a brand new day

Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect your body, respect your mind
Respect your freedom, respect yourself


If you're walking 'round thinking that
The world owes you something, boy
You′re going out of the world backward
Like you did when you first come here
Keep talking ′bout the government won't stop no air pollution
If they stop talking shit, then maybe they will find a solution

Don′t cuss around women when you don't even know their name
Take the sheet off your face, boy, it′s a brand new day

Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect your body, respect your mind
Respect your freedom, respect yourself

Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
