Do What You're Told To - Graham Coxon
Living with your battered head in a can Hearing all the voices of a mean old man Illness and aggression knocking at your door Gonna nail your body to the bathroom floor Dying in the river of your teenage plan Giving all your beauty to the yeah yeah man Tell you what you want are the things you need know no more Gonna show you what your brains are really for Even though you're pretty you're lookin' pretty shitty Even though you're pretty you're lookin' pretty shitty You're lying and you're dying and you scream and shout But you can never seem to get the sickness out The madness and the sadness and the suicide Breaking up the places where you run and hide You're smelling and you're selling your last pair of shoes To keep beside the madness of a glass of booze (All this/Oddness) and aggression gonna kill you dead You made yourself a coffin out of your own bed Even though you're pretty you're lookin' pretty shitty Even though you're pretty you're lookin' pretty shitty Why don't you do what you?re sold to? Even though you're pretty you're lookin' pretty shitty Even though you're pretty you're lookin' pretty shitty Why don't you do what you're told to? Living with your battered head in a can Hearing all the voices of a mean old man Illness and aggression knocking at your door Gonna nail your body to the bathroom floor Even though you're pretty you're lookin' pretty shitty Even though you're pretty you're lookin' pretty shitty Why don't you do what you're told to?
