Do What I Say - Clawfinger

When I grow up there will be a day

When everybody has to do what I say

Don’t do this, don’t do that

Don’t you ever talk back

Don’t speak with food in your mouth

Just keep quiet while the grown ups are talking

I’m not being mean I’m just being fair

It’s just because I really care

You know that I love you

But shut your mouth you just have to do what I say

I don’t want you to lie

You’re much too old to cry

You’re just to young to know

But when you’re older you’ll understand

You are mine I own you

Look at me I’m talking to you

Don’t use that tone to me

So shut your mouth you just have to do what I say

When I grow up there will be a day

When everybody has to do what I say

When I grow up there will be a day

When everybody has to do it MY WAY!

MY WAY!

I’ve paid to raise you good

Did everything I could so don’t you dare to say

That I never cared about you anyway

I gave you good food to eat

I kept you on your feet

I gave you all my good advice

Not once did I hear you

thank me for all that I’ve done

You don’t know anything

About my suffering

I went through a lot of pain

Just to get you where you are today

If I ever hit you

It’s because I have to

You have done something wrong

And you deserve the punishment, you’ll have to pay

When I grow up there will be a day

When everybody has to do what I say

When I grow up there will be a day

When everybody has to do it MY WAY!

MY WAY!

Don’t you ask me why not

Be glad with what you’ve got

Don’t tell me you’re alone

You should be glad that you have a home

Just look me in the eyes

You have to realize

I make the rules that’s it

It’s for your own good so you have to do what I say

When I grow up there will be a day

When everybody has to do what I say

When I grow up there will be a day

When everybody has to do it MY WAY!
