Don't Panic - a cautionary song for extraordinary times

Lyrics
If the situation’s tense
No good sitting on the fence,
Got to come to a decision
Where there is no opposition.
So remember if you can,
That you’ve got to have a plan
And there’s one thing you must never, ever do.
(What’s that?)
Yes there’s one thing you must never, ever do.

When you’re standing in the dark
You must find a little spark.
It will soon become a notion
That will get your plan in motion.
Then just organise your scheme
And get working as a team.
And there’s one thing you must never, ever do.
(What’s that?)
Yes there’s one thing you must never, ever do.

Don’t panic (don’t panic)
If you’re manic, (never panic)
Don’t panic (don’t panic)
You’ll regret it if you do.
Don’t panic (don’t panic)
Got to make it, you can’t fake it,
You’ll just make the same mistakes
And that will be the end of you. (repeat chorus)

Panicky do, panicky don’t
Panicky will, panicky won’t,
Panicky left, panicky right,
Panicky, panicky out of sight.
Panicky up, panicky down,
Panicky smile, panicky frown,
Panicky stop, panicky go,
Panicky, panicky I don’t know!

Panicky here, panicky there,
Panicky when, panicky where,
Panicky who, panicky why,
Panicky, panicky got to try!
Panicky walk, panicky run,
Panicky lost, panicky won,
Panicky yes, panicky no,
Panicky, panicky here we go!

If the future is in doubt
Then it’s time to sort it out.
It’s important to endeavour
That the whole tribe work together.
If you panic, then you’ve lost
And you’ll never count the cost
And there’s one thing you must never, ever do.
(What’s that?)
Yes there’s one thing you must never, ever do.
