lyrics

NOBODY’S GONNA TELL ME HOW TO LIVE MY LIFE
OR WHAT I SHOULD DO IF I WANT TO SURVIVE
AND MY BAD HABITS ARE NOBODY’S BUSINESS BUT MINE

WELL I’M NOT TRYING TO HURT ANYONE
BUT I’LL SAY ANYTHING IF I THINK IT’S FUN
I WANT TO BE THE PERSON WHO RUINS IT FOR EVERYONE

I MIGHT BE OUTSPOKEN AND I MIGHT BE BRASH
I MIGHT BE OUT OF MY DEPTH I MIGHT BE MAKING A HASH OF IT ALL
AT LEAST I HAVEN’T GOT FAR TO FALL

IT COULD BE TOO LOUD IT COULD BE TOO LONG
BUT NO-ONE’S GONNA TELL ME
THAT THERE’S SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY SONG
EVEN SOMEONE WHO’S CLASICALLY TRAINED

NOW EVERYBODY WANTS TO LIVE THEIR LIFE ON LINE
WE SHOULD HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO WITH OUR TIME
THAN TELL EVERYONE ABOUT OUR DIET AND OUR EXERCISE

COS IF YOU’RE REALLY TELLING ME IT’S FUN TO RUN
WELL WHY SHOULD I CARE HOW MANY MILES YOU’VE DONE
MY EYES ARE GLAZING OVER YOU HAVEN’T EVEN BEGUN

WELL I COULD BE HAPPY OR I COULD BE SAD
BUT PEOPLE’S OPINIONS ARE DRIVING ME MAD ALL THE TIME
WHY DOESN’T EVERYBODY LISTEN TO MINE

AND I COULD BE RIGHT OR I COULD BE WRONG
I COULD FALL FLAT ON MY FACE
YOU COULD BE LAUGHING AT ME ALL ALONG
LAUGHING AT ME ALL ALONG

NOBODY’S GONNA TELL ME HOW TO LIVE MY LIFE
OR WHAT I SHOULD DO IF I WANT TO SURVIVE
AND MY BAD HABITS ARE NOBODY’S BUSINESS BUT MINE
