PICK ONE
It’s raining out today and I’m stuck inside
Got the TV channel changer, but I can’t decide
All the great programs on TV
Flipping through the channels, then Mom says to me!
Cho: Pick one! Pick one! You’re makin’ me crazy!
Pick one! Pick one! You’re eyes are gettin’ hazy!
Pick one channel, try it for awhile
You can always pick another, if it’s not your style
But Just! Pick! One!
I couldn’t stand the blabbing, so I went for a walk
Down to the library, no one there can talk
Books by the thousands, which one to read?
Then the Librarian whispered to me,
Cho: Pick one! Pick one! You make yourself crazy!
Pick one! Pick one! You’re eyes are gettin’ hazy!
Pick one book, try it for awhile
You can always pick another, if it’s not your style
But Just! Pick! One!
Bridge: I looked down at my shoes, I couldn’t seem to choose
So I went home turned the radio on
There was talk about war and the nuclear bomb
Off-shore drilling, sex abuse and killing
Polluting the environment and ineffective government
Oil barons, cancer and lots of drugs
Health care, welfare and Wall Street thugs,
Financial collapse, crowded schools and population
Terrorism, vigilantes, immigration
I wanna save the world before it’s blown away
I was overwhelmed, then I heard myself say, ...
Cho: Pick one! Pick one! You make yourself crazy!
Pick one! Pick one! You’re eyes are gettin’ hazy!
Pick one cause, try it for awhile
You can always pick another, if it’s not your style
But Just! Pick! One!
Cho: Pick one! Pick one! Maybe not the best!
Pick one! Pick one or you’re gonna get depressed
Sittin’ in your stall doin’ nothin’ at all
So Pick one! Pick one! This is not a test!
Cho: Pick one! Pick one! Make it work for you
Pick one! Pick one! There’s lots that we can do
Try to think small 'cause y’can’t do it all!
To get a lot done, y’gotta start with one
So Just Pick One! Pick one!
