[Intro]
Yesterday, I had this dream
Where I had just turned 43
I still hadn't been on MTV
Life just isn't very easy on the other team
Oh, yeah

[Verse 1]
I've got so much to say, but not enough style
To make the people listen, yeah, cause I'm not
Putting on an act
I gotta watch my back
I saw you, your face was on the tele
"Cool shirt", yeah, that could never be me
You're putting on an act
You better watch your back

[Pre-Chorus]
This doesn't feel right
Is this real life?

[Chorus]
Do, I do, do what I want to
Do, you do, do what they tell you
Do, I do, do what I want to
Take all you need
But my music leaves with me
[Verse 2]
So now I'm living my life in a stereo type of life
It's my placebo
Putting on an act
I've got to watch my back
Is there anything you wouldn't do for greed?
Is an evil thing, it's a disease
Putting on an act
You better watch your back
This doesn't feel right
Is this real life?

[Chorus]
Do, I do, do what I want to
Do, you do, do what they tell you
Do, I do, do what I want to
Take all you need
But my music leaves with me

[Bridge]
Yesterday, I had this dream
Where I had just turned 43
I still hadn't been on MTV
Life just isn't very easy on the other team
So I
Do, I do, I do what I want to
Do, I do, I do what I want to
Do, you do, do what they tell you
Yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
This doesn't feel right
Is this real life?

[Chorus]
Do, I do, do what I want to
Do, you do, do what they tell you
Do, I do, do what I want to
Take all you need
But my music leaves with me

[Outro]
Take what you need, take what you need
Take all you need, but my music leaves with me
