Bullies are cowards
Who get their power
From acting cruelly
Don’t be a bully

It makes others sad
Bullying is bad
We say it truly
Don’t be a bully

Tell me why
It’s better to be nice than mean
There really is no in-between
To make a better you and me
Don’t be a bully

We all have value
Face each day brand new
Amends made newly
Don’t be a bully

Tell me why
They like to hurt and to deride
To cover their own pain inside
Can’t we live peacefully?
Don’t be a bully

If you can’t say something nice then don’t say
Don’t say anything at all, yeah
We come in all shapes and all sizes at school
At school we welcome all!

School is a safe place
We share the same space
Don’t be, don’t be, don’t be, don’t be
Don’t be a bully!
