This song was written as a demo to introduce people to the idea for the Songs for your Body project and is one of the first songs written. It is aimed at all ages and capabilities and is designed to promote safe sex, deliberately written in a light manner so as to appeal to young people who are beginning to think about sex and relationships.

Just Say No!
Well it’s Saturday night
Midnight has struck, she’s
Agreed to let you walk her home, you
Can’t believe your luck, and then she
Asks you at her doorway
“Would you like to come inside?”, and there’s a
Rummage in your trousers that is
Very hard to hide . . .
CHORUS:
Just say no!
Don’t get stressed!
Even though you’re feeling
Anatomically impressed, and
Crazy though it seems to let the situation go, if you
Haven’t got a condom
Just say no!
V2
She’s a sexy lady, a
Cool temptress, your
Pulse is racing round and round, your
Head’s in a mess, and then she
Leads you to her bedroom and she
Starts to undress, if you
Haven’t got a condom
Don’t say yes!
CHORUS
So where can I get some condoms from?
Middle 8 bars
You can
Buy them at the chemist or at your pharmacy, you can
even buy them down the pub they’re in the lavatory, they
Come in packs of 24, 16 or 8 or 3, you can
Get them from your local nurse for absolutely free
At your surgery
So it’s
V3
Best to be careful, not to
Do as you please, it can
Keep you out of trouble, stop you
Catching a disease, and
If you think it’s clever not to
Wear a condom mate, I’ll
See you in maternity, or
Outside heaven’s gate.
V4
But
There’s no need to sadden, there’s a
Thing they call foreplay, it
Really is much safer man than
Going all the way, and what’s
Great about it is that you can
Carry on all day, and
If you’re careful,
No infections
And no
Baby
on the
Way . . .
CHORUS +
FIN.
