[Verse 1: Baby Lickety-split]
Why do they always have to tell me I'm wrong?
Why must they make me feel I just don't belong?
If they don't like the way I sing my own song
I'll go it alone
I'll go it alone!

[Verse 2: Baby Lickety-split]
How come the word I hear most often is "no"?
The way I'm treated I feel lower than low
It's very clear that I'm not wanted here so
I'll go it alone
I'll go it alone!

[Verse 3: Baby Lickety-split & Spike]
I know that you're upset
But don't rush off just yet
You can't take the road on single-handed
What if you should end up lost and stranded?
Better that, than being reprimanded!

[Verse 4: Baby Lickety-Split]
No matter how I try I can't seem to please
What do they want?
Should I go down on my knees?
If all they know to do is holler and tease
I'll go it alone!
[Verse 5: Baby Lickety-split & Spike]
Why must they criticise whatever I do?
My days of taking all their insults are through!
Goodbye! So long! Ta-ra! Farewell! Toodle-oo!
But, I don't like thinking what may happen to you
If you strike out on your own

[Verse 6: Baby Lickety-split & Spike]
Spike! I'll brave the unknown!
But Lickety, you can't!
And go it alone!
Don't go it alone!
I'll go it alone!
Don't go it alone!
