[Verse 1]
Throwing candy out to the crowd
Dragging down the main
The big mean boys that try to cry out loud
'Cause they're always so carried away
You're sitting around at home now waiting for your brother to call
I saw him down in the alley, sleeping with a plastic doll
[Chorus]
Said, "You can do what you want to whenever you want to
You can do what you want to, there's no one to stop you."
[Verse 2]
All spit and spite, urban blight and personal decay
A tired man with only hours to go just waiting to be weathered away
Getting into the back of a car for candy from some stranger
Watching the parade with pinpoint eyes full of smoldering anger
[Chorus]
You can do what you want to whenever you want to
You can do what you want to there's no one to stop you
[Outro]
Now, you can do what you want to whenever you want to (oh yeah)
Do what you want to whenever you want to (oh yeah)
Do what you want to whenever you want to
Though it doesn't mean a thing
Big nothing
Throwing candy out to the crowd
Dragging down the main
The big mean boys that try to cry out loud
'Cause they're always so carried away
You're sitting around at home now waiting for your brother to call
I saw him down in the alley, sleeping with a plastic doll
[Chorus]
Said, "You can do what you want to whenever you want to
You can do what you want to, there's no one to stop you."
[Verse 2]
All spit and spite, urban blight and personal decay
A tired man with only hours to go just waiting to be weathered away
Getting into the back of a car for candy from some stranger
Watching the parade with pinpoint eyes full of smoldering anger
[Chorus]
You can do what you want to whenever you want to
You can do what you want to there's no one to stop you
[Outro]
Now, you can do what you want to whenever you want to (oh yeah)
Do what you want to whenever you want to (oh yeah)
Do what you want to whenever you want to
Though it doesn't mean a thing
Big nothing
