|
Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
|
Why don't they just let me live?
|
I don't need commission, make my own decisions
|
That's my prerogative
|
|
They say I'm crazy
|
I really don't care
|
That's my prerogative
|
They say I'm nasty
|
But I don't give a damn
|
Getting girls is how I live
|
Some messy questions
|
Why am I so real?
|
But they don't undersand me
|
I really don't know the deal about her brother
|
Trying hard to make it right
|
Not long ago
|
Before I win this fight, sing
|
|
(Chorus:)
|
Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
|
Why don't they just let me live?
|
Tell me why I don't need commission
|
Make my own decisions
|
That's my prerogative
|
It's my prerogative (it's my prerogative)
|
|
It's the way that I wanna live (it's my prerogative)
|
I can do just what I feel (it's my prerogative)
|
No one can tell me what to do (it's my prerogative)
|
'Cause what I'm doing I'm doing for you
|
|
Don't get me wrong
|
I'm really not souped
|
Ego trips is not my thing
|
All these strange relationships really gets me down
|
I see nothing wrong in spreading myself around
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
I can do what I wanna do (it's my prerogative)
|
I can live my life (it's my prerogative)
|
And I'm doing it just for you (it's my prerogative)
|
|
Tell me, tell me why can't I live my life
|
Live my life without all of the things
|
That people say oh
|
|
Yo, teddy kick it like this
|
Oh no no I can do what I wanna do
|
Me and you together together together together together
|
|
(Repeat chorus ad lib and fade)
