A dancer stumblin, a wise man wonderin, a poet fumblin, I'm in the dark again Trying to feel my way back to the light
You're poison seeping in, I'm filled with doubt again Is that what you meant to do- when you dropped a cent or two Like it's your job to tell me what's up
I made the mistake before of asking you what you thought too, but I was wrong
Don't tell me what to do I'll do me, and you do you Don't tell me what to do Just cause you mean it don't make it true for me
You've got it figured out, you've turned it inside out, and deconstructed it down to little bits Analyzed and turned this all to shit
You've reconnected the dots for me, the picture looks differently I locked the door but forgot that you've got a key It's boomeranged and smacked me in the head
I made the mistake before of asking you what you thought too, but I was wrong
Don't tell me what to do I'll do me, and you do you Don't tell me what to do Just cause you mean it don't make it true for me
