Clean Out Your Ears
Clean out your ears
Open your eyes
Listen, I'm not dissin'
I tell no lies
I'm here to broadcast reality
The most talked about threat
To you and me
AIDS, Acquired Immune Deficiency
You don't have to be gay
To get this disease
So listen to this message
I'm asking you please
'Cause if you're using dirty needles
Or you're having sex
When it comes to AIDS
You know, you could be next
So take care, be careful
You better watch out
Think about what you're doin'
When the lights go out
And if you don't have a condom
When it's time to play
You'd be a whole lot smarter
Just to - walk away,
Walk away, walk away


Wanda and Ray
Let me tell you all a story
About Wanda and Ray
Two-young lovers
Who decided one day
That the time had come
To go - all the way
Well they didn't know much
About the problem of AIDS
But they did know enough
To be a little afraid
So they made a decision
Right there and then
To get the facts about AIDS
Before the love begins
When they learned the facts
It opened their eyes
They decided to wait
A decision so wise
And if you ever find yourself
In that position one day
Be smart, take a lesson
From Wanda and Ray
Dirty Needles Shooting AIDS
You use a dirty needle
So I ask you why
Must you abuse your precious veins
Just for a quick high
Don't ruin your life
Don't damage yourself
This could really be a matter
Of life and death
You choose to use a dirty needle
Well I hate to say
That it could be one high
You might regret someday
So, to make this message
Short, simple and brief
Don't share a needle, but if you must
Clean it with bleach
And if you think that needle
Will ease your pain
You could be shootin' AIDS
Right into you veins
