When someone talks, be sure you listen
When someone speaks, be sure you hear
'Cause only if you listen to what they say
Then what they say will be perfectly clear
Don't let it go in
One ear and out the other
Don't let it go in
One ear and out the other
Don't let those messages slip away
Be sure you know, you know what people say
Don't let it go in
One ear and out the other
Don't let it go in
One ear and out the other
When someone talks, you're gonna listen
When someone speaks, you're gonna hear
'Cause if you really listen to what they say
Then what they say will be perfectly clear
Don't let it go in
One ear and out the other
Don't let it go in
One ear and out the other
Don't let those messages slip away
Be sure you understand what people say
Don't let it go in
One ear and out the other
Don't let it go in
One ear and out the other
Don't let God's messages slip away
You'll understand what the King of Heaven says
Don't let it go in
One ear and out the other
Listen to what people say
Listen to what people say
When teachers talk, children will listen
When parents speak, the kids will hear
If everybody listens to what they say
Then what they say will be perfectly clear
Don't let it go in
One ear and out the other
Don't let it go in
One ear and out the other
Don't let those messages slip away
Be sure you know, you know what people say
Don't let it go in
One ear and out the other...
