Rudy, go tell them!
Rudy, go tell them!
Can I go with you?
Can I go with you?
Don't like 'em

And what can I do?
And what can I do?
And what can I do?
And what can I do?
And what can I do?

No, no, I'll tell you what you do
I'll tell you what to do
No, no, no, no
I'll tell you what to

Look, he's running around naked
Look, he's running around naked
Look, he's running around naked
Look, he's running around naked
Catch himself believing in the dream

And what can I do?
And what can I do?
Yours might be a Mercedes
Somebody else's might be a Volkswagen
Somebody else's might be a moped
Whatever it is!

And what can I do?
I go with you
Whatever it is!
No, no, I'll tell you what you do
Whatever it is!

We'll all pay to include a house on the hill
I happen to like a view – fine view
I happen to like a view – fine view
You told me that you'd give me more lessons for the harp
Hey now kid, you told me I possess bad things

And you did it to me
And what can I do?
And you did it to me
And what can I do?
