lyrics

I'm beaten burnt and badly bruised,
You know it hurts so much I really don't know what to do,
I'm getting tired here and I don't know where to go,
I got a feeling that I'm losing all my self control,

I'm looking round and round again,
Something hits me on the head and then I'm... oh... oh... I'm in it then,
You gotta know your way,
Something hits me in the head and now it's all a daze,

Your love affair with choice,
You better cross your t's and dot your i's or maybe just make some noise,

Oh will you do as you're told?
Oh will you do as you're told?

And now I'm up here on the stage,
Product of different generation and a different age,
I wanna make a few mistakes,
Have a couple slices and still eat the cake,

Just remember that you've got a choice,
Slice it all to pieces, cut it down and then you grab your voice,

Oh will you do as you're told?
Oh will you do as you're told?

I know sublime's so hard to find when you're a fool and you come easy,
Tense up from your head down to your toes,
But it's your fate to resonate with all the greats who weren't so sleazy,
Sit back relax and let the music go,

Oh no,
Now hit me,

(drum break)

They'll try to take away your soul,
(Not my soul,)
Try to take away your ever lovin' self control,
(I've got no control,)
They'll try to take away your name,
(What's my name?)
They'll try to take away all your favorite video games,
(And Lord knows you don't want that... do ya?)

Oh will you do as you're told?
Oh will you do as you're told?
Oh will you do as you're told?
Oh will you do as you're told?

Come on let's make a little noise,
Remember guys,
It's just us boys,

Oh, oh oh oh oh oh... Uh-oh... Uh-oh...

I said sublime's so hard to find when you're a fool and you come easy,
Tense up from your head down to your toes,
But it's your fate to resonate with all the greats who weren't so sleazy,
Sit back, relax and let the music go...
