I've got a word or two
to say about the things that you do
you're telling all those lies
about the good things that we can have if we close our eyes

Do what you want to do
and go where you're going to
think for yourself, 'cause I won't be there with you

I left you far behind
the ruins of the life that you had in mind
and though you still can't see
I know your mind's made up, you're gonna cause more misery

Do what you want to do
and go where you're going to
think for yourself, 'cause I won't be there with you

Although your mind's opaque
try thinking more, if just for your own sake
the future still looks good
and you got time to rectify all the things that you should

Do what you want to do
and go where you're going to
think for yourself, 'cause I won't be there with you

Do what you want to do
and go where you're going to
think for yourself, 'cause I won't be there with you

Think for yourself, 'cause I won't be there with you
