Russ Taff: Not Gonna Bow

Ninety feet tall and nine feet wide
Solid gold
It must be a god, they were told

When you hear the music play
Fall on your knees and begin to pray
They were told

But when the trumpet sounded
The whole world bowed
Three men stood there all alone

They said
Not gonna bow to your idols
We won't bow, oh no
Not gonna bow to your idols
We won't bow, oh no

All Bobby wanted was just to fit in
To be accepted he must act like them
He said no

Everybody does it, so what's the fuss
Come on Bobby won't'cha be like us
He said no

And when the pressure came
He watched them bow
Bobby stood there all alone

He said
Not gonna bow to your idols
I won't bow, oh no
Not gonna bow to your idols
I won't bow, oh no

We won't bow to your idols
We won't bow
Not gonna bow to your idols
We won't bow down no more
No more

We don't have to give in to it
We can choose to go against the crowd

Not gonna bow to your idols
We won't bow, oh no
Not gonna bow to your idols
We won't bow down no more
No more

Not gonna bow to your idols
We won't bow, oh no
Not gonna bow to your idols
We won't bow down no more
No, no

Not gonna bow to your idols
We won't bow, oh no
Not gonna bow to your idols
We won't bow down no more
