Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I had a mind to
I wouldn't want to think like you
And if I had time to
I wouldn't want to talk to you, oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
I don't care
What you do
I wouldn't want to be like you, yeah
[Verse 2]
If I was high class
I wouldn't need a buck to pass
And if I was a fall guy
I wouldn't need no alibi
[Chorus]
I don't care
What you do
I wouldn't want to be like you
No, oh, oh
[Verse 3]
Back on the bottom line
Diggin' for a lousy dime, yeah
If I hit a mother lode
I'd cover anything that showed, oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
I don't care
What you do
I wouldn't want to be like you, oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
I don't care
What you do
I wouldn't wanna...
[Outro]
I wouldn't want to be like you
I wouldn't want to be like you
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh
