Preston
People, around the world say I'm bitter
But I can say I'm not a quitter (ha ha ha ha)
And you can't
And people
No... they don't apologize
That why we have to advertise in the paper
I can't make you stop and listen that won't save you.
I can't believe
Everybody wants to party all night long until the birds are singing
So do what you want to do
Be what you want to be
Live how you want to live
If you want to be free
Then your going to be free
People
Don't you know it's not polite
To point and stare
No... it's no the way to show you care
About the way you live, but I bet you don't give a...
And people
You've got to give it up with gratitude
But you only did it cause I told you to
(ooh) Well too bad
So sad
Hope I didn't make you mad
I can't make you stop and listen that won't save you.
I can't believe
Everybody wants to party all night long until the birds are singing
(and the birds are singing)
So do what you want to do
Be what you want to be
Live how you want to live
If you want to be free
Then your going to be free
So say what you want to say
Hear what you want to hear
Live how you want to live
If you want to be free
Then you're going to be free
I can't make you stop and listen that won't save you.
I can't believe
Everybody wants to party all night long until... (birds are singing)
So do what you want to do
Be what you want to be
Live how you want to live
If you want to be free
Then your going to be free
So say what you want to say
Hear what you want to hear
Live how you want to live
If you want to be
Then you're going to be free
If you want to be
Got to be
Have to be
