Never Say No Lyrics

[HUCKLEBEE, spoken]
Children!

[BELLOMY, spoken]
Lovers!

[HUCKLEBEE, spoken]
Fantasticks!

[BELLOMY, spoken]
Geese!

[HUCKLEBEE, spoken]
How clever we are!

[BELLOMY, spoken]
How crafty to know—

[HUCKLEBEE, spoken]
To manipulate children

[BELLOMY, spoken]
You merely say—

[HUCKLEBEE & BELLOMY, spoken]
"No"

(sung)
Oh....

Dog's got to bark, a mule's got to bray
Soldiers must fight and preachers must pray
And children, I guess, must get their own way
The minute that you say no

Why did the kids pour jam on the cat?
Raspberry jam all over the cat?
Why should the kids do something like that
When all that we said was no?

[HUCKLEBEE]
My son was once afraid to swim
The water made him wince
Until I said he mustn't swim:
S'been swimmin' ever since!

[HUCKLEBEE & BELLOMY]
S'been swimmin' ever sincе!
Oh!

Dog's got to bark, a mule's got to bray
Soldiers must fight and preachеrs must pray
And children, I guess, must get their own way
The minute that you say no

Why did the kids put beans in their ears?
No one can hear with beans in their ears
After a while the reason appears
They did it cause we said no

[BELLOMY]
Your daughter brings a young man in
Says, "Do you like him, Pa?"
Just tell her he's a fool and then:
You've got a son-in-law!

[HUCKLEBEE & BELLOMY]
You've got a son-in-law!
Oh!

Sure as a June comes right after May
Sure as the night comes right after day
You can be sure the devil's to pay
The minute that you say no

Make sure you never say
No!
