What You Gonna Do Now
What you gonna do now?
Are you thinkin' 'bout taking Manhattan on foot?
What you gonna do now?
Are you thinkin' 'bout leaving [?] just stay put
There's a girl I know
Raised on rock and roll
Fishnet fire and lace
Right up in my face
She's got New York down
Says she'll show me round
She's my perfect ten
She's heaven sent to clue me in
What you gonna do now?
Sell the house and maybe move it out east to Spain?
What you gonna do now?
Stay at home all alone and maybe think about rain?
There's a girl I've seen
Keeps a quiet routine
Lives by playground rules
She don't suffer fools
She writes books and such
Says I drink too much
She says she's glad to be my friend
'Til I'm back down on Earth again
What you gonna do now?
What you gonna do now?
[Instrumental]
What you gonna do now?
I heard you talkin' 'bout climbing up Machu Picchu
What you gonna do now?
You always said that there was something that it just might teach you
There's a girl I love
I can't rise above
Pushed my luck too far
Left a nasty scar
Washed her hands of me
Thus this man you see
Dark sunglasses on
To make believe that nothing's wrong
What you gonna do now?
What you gonna do now?
What you gonna do now?
What you gonna do now?
