Important to Be Nice

Lyrics

[Intro] It's nice to be important and important to be nice Each and every nation Why can't we live as one? [Verse 1] Why can't we live in love and unity We're living in a multi-cultural society It's not because of our languages We can try to work together on our differences This is the twenty first century, the age of technology And the earth is like a melting pot Some will feel it when the fire gets hot [Chorus] But it's important to be nice, and it's not nice to be rude We've got to change our way of life and check our attitude It's important to be nice, and it's not nice to be rude We must change our standards and check our attitudes [Verse 2] Now that we're here in this ya generation Why can't we learn to live with each an' every nation If you do the things that we know are right Keep some oil in your life, your fire must be burning bright And it's not because of our languages Even though it's a struggle everyday with tribal differences [Chorus] But it's important to be nice, and it's not nice to be rude Can't we change this way of life and check our attitude? It's important to be nice, and it's not nice to be rude We must set the standard so high and check our attitude [Bridge] It's so nice to be important, you know? It's important to be nice (Yeah) To each and every nation Why can't we live as one? [Verse 3] Why can't we live with love and liberty? We're living in a multi-cultural society It's not because of our bilingual languages We've got to work together with our differences This is the twenty first century, the age of technology The earth is like a melting pot Fire will burn and the fire will get hot [Chorus] It's important to be nice, and it's not nice to be rude Let's set our standard so high and work with our attitude It's important to be nice, and it's not nice to be rude Can't we check our way of life and change our attitude? [Outro] Nice to be important, not nice to be rude Hey now, each and everyone will knew In this ya nation (Yeah now) It's important to be nice, and it's not nice to be rude
