[Verse 1]
I lose my head sometimes
I grind my teeth at night
I burn my hand on fire
I watch the TV closed
I wear the same t-shirt
I got one dirty pair of jeans
I wear them out, but they don't cover me up (ow!)

[Hook]
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it-

[Verse 2]
I've been dancing to the wrong songs
I've been talking with the wrong girls
I've been playing with a live wire
Watch me fry
I've been waiting for the phone to ring
So I can yell and complain
About everything little thing
That I can think of (ow!)

[Hook]
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to-
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
[Bridge]
I've been a bad boy
How did this happen?
I used to be so gentle
And calm
(Ow!)

[Hook]
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to-
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it anyway
Don't tell me what to do, I do it-

[Outro]
Ah-ah
