Do What You Want

When you are little they put you in school

To learn how to sit still and follow the rules

That’s all good and well if that’s how you wanna be

But I’ve learned a secret that’s worked out for me

You’re damned if you do, you’re damned if you don’t

And you’ll never be happy if you don’t do what you want

And as far as I know, you’ve only got one life to live

When you’re dead and buried 6 feet in the ground

Well you won’t be worried like you’re worried now

So do it or don’t, you might as well do what you want

Then you grow up and now they’re telling you

Don’t be too loose, but don’t be a prude

Get an education but start having babies

It’s all enough to drive you crazy

You’re damned if you do, you’re damned if you don’t

And you’ll never be happy if you don’t do what you want

And as far as I know, you’ve only got one life to live

When you’re dead and buried 6 feet in the ground

Well you won’t be worried like you’re worried now

So do it or don’t, you might as well do what you want

They told me that music was a waste of time

But I’m not stuck in an office and hating my life

You’re damned if you do, you’re damned if you don’t

And you’ll never be happy if you don’t do what you want

And as far as I know, you’ve only got one life to live

When you’re dead and buried 6 feet in the ground

Well you won’t be worried like you’re worried now

So do it or don’t, you might as well do what you want

So do it or don’t, you might as well do what you want
