  • Just keep writing on that

    What am I gonna do today?
    Walk to the [?]
    Check out the war zone
    Check the lists to see what's good on
    Oh there's one I've been wanting to see
    Anyone up for a movie? I am

    Nobody tells me I can't
    Nobody tells me I shan't
    No one to say "you're doing it wrong"
    I'm at the best, I'm where I belong, alone
    Yeah, I like it

    Now I'm out [?] the streets
    With the poets and the [?] and the deadbeats
    I'm taking my time sitting on park benches
    And all the glamour, it all [?] standing here
    This is where the times begins
    Life's a canvas, and I want it

    Nobody tells me I can't
    Nobody tells me I shan't
    No one to say "you're doing it wrong"
    I'm at the best, I'm where I belong, alone
    I like it, yeah, I like it alone

    Everything I like to do
    Go to the graveyard, hang out with you
    Have a smoke and practise my autograph
    [?] it says
    Don't you laugh as you [?]
    For as you are so once resigned
    And as I am so you shall be
    [?] follow me
    Alone, yeah, I like that
    I like it alone
    Yeah, what are you gonna do about it?

    Nobody tells me I can't
    Nobody tells me I shan't
    No one to say "you're doing it wrong"
    I'm at the best, I'm where I belong, alone
    Yeah, I like it, I like being alone
    What are you gonna do about it?
    And so, fuck off
    Yeah [?] Writer/s: CHRISTINE HYNDE, DAN AUERBACH, RICHARD SWIFT
