Sticks and Stones

Music and Lyrics by Steve James,
© 1999, B.M.I.
Performed by Steve James

(Verse 1)
Well you can call me names
You can play your games
You can do whatever you want to
But it's not gonna hurt me
So leave me alone
You're gonna find inside
I'm stronger than sticks and stones

(Verse 2)
Well, if you stare me down
I'll just turn around
You can do whatever you want to
But it won't affect me
That's my comfort zone
You're gonna find inside
I'm stronger than sticks and stones

(Chorus)
Sticks and stones
Stronger than sticks and stones
Sticks and stones
Stronger than sticks and stones
You're gonna find inside
I'm stronger than sticks and stones

(Verse 3)
I'm not gonna break
I'm not gonna take
Anything at all inside me
That is going to hurt me
Now or when I'm grown
You're gonna find inside
I'm stronger than sticks and stones

(Chorus)
You're gonna find inside
I'm stronger than sticks and stones
