My mother spent ten years sitting by a window |
|
Scared if she spoke, she would die of a heart attack |
|
She listened as her dreams silently screamed |
|
They drowned like little dolphins caught in a fishnet |
|
Dear world, I'm pleased to meet you |
|
Hey, everybody, when you walk the walk |
|
You gotta back it all up you, can you talk the talk? |
|
Hey, everybody when I hear the knock |
|
Don't wanna measure out my life to the tick of a clock? |
|
Hey, everybody when my daddy died |
|
He had a sad, sad story livin' in his eyes |
|
Hey, everybody when you walk the walk |
|
You cannot measure out your life to the tick of a clock |
|
I wanna walk of my own drum |
|
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum |
|
Walk to the beat of my own drum |
|
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum |
|
Hey, everybody, when you walk the walk |
|
You gotta back it all up but can you talk the talk? |
|
Hey, everybody, when I hear the knock |
|
Don't wanna measure out my life to the tick of a clock |
|
Hey, every, hey, everybody |
|
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums |
|
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums |
|
Walk to the beat of my own drums |
|
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums, hey |
|
Walk to the beat of my own drum |
|
I wanna live to the beat of my own drum |
|
I wanna laugh to the beat of my own drum |
|
I wanna hang ten high, say pleased to meet you |
|
Take to the beat of my own drum |
|
I wanna give to the beat of my own drum |
|
Fly, cry, win, lose, live, die, take five |
|
Pleased to meet you |
|
My Daddy spent ten years living on the outside, looking in |
|
He thought that he would never get back, hey, get back |
|
Watched his dream walk across a silver screen |
|
And he was standing there |
|
When the theater went pitch black |
|
Dear world I'm pleased to meet you |
|
Hey, everybody when I walk the walk |
|
I gotta back it all up, can I talk the talk? |
|
Hey, everybody, when I hear the knock |
|
Don't wanna measure out my life to the tick of a clock |
|
Hey, every, hey every, hey every, hey everybody |
|
Can you walk the walk? |
|
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums |
|
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums |
|
Walk to the beat of my own drums |
|
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums, hey |
|
Play to the beat of my own drum |
|
I wanna sing to the beat of my own drum |
|
I wanna play to the beat of my own drum |
|
I wanna hang ten high, say pleased to meet you |
|
Screw up to the beat of my own drum |
|
I wanna take it out of town and do it to my drum |
|
Scream shout, hide out, win, lose |
|
Wipe out, saunter down my street |
|
Make love to my baby |
|
Make love to my baby |
|
It's a wonderful idea, but it doesn't work |
|
My own drum, my own beat |
|
MY own drum, my own, own, own, own |
|
Hey, did you ever get the feeling that it's really a joke? |
|
You think you've got it figured out |
|
And then you find that you don't? |
|
So you say goodbye to the world |
|
And now you're floating in space? |
|
You got no sense of nothing not even a time or a place? |
|
Then suddenly you hear it, it's the beat of your heart |
|
And for the first time in your life |
|
You know your life is about to start? |
|
Oh, yeah, bring it on |
|
Hey, everybody, hey, everybody |
|
Hey, everybody when you walk the walk |
|
You gotta back it all, back it all, back it all, back it all up |
|
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum |
|
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum |
|
I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum |
|
There's someone knocking in the wall |
|
Was it like an echo? |
