Don't Tell Me What To Do

When everyday begins in yesterday
When every light around you shines
You are the lover of a hundred others
So don't tell me what to do

Retreat resist relent redemption
Be careful not to cut your hair
Be sorry for all your sins and all their mothers
But don't tell me what to do

I am forever trying to defend
I lost my childhood qualities when I was ten
Don't quite recall when it began
Ooh I can't remember such a drain

Believe the truth before you breathe it
Beloved sometime before the truth
Your pathway forward is an exit dooray
So don't tell me what to do

I am forever trying to defend
I lost my childhood qualities when I was ten
Don't quite recall when it began
Ooh I can't remember such a drain

I am forever trying to defend
I lost my childhood qualities when I was ten
Don't quite recall when it began
Ooh I can't remember such a drain

I am forever trying to defend
I lost my childhood qualities when I was ten
Don't quite recall when it began
Ooh I can't remember such a drain
