Van Halen – Don't Tell Me lyrics

It's ok, I'll do what I want
If I choose, I can take the fall
There's a choice, it's my destiny
In my hands, yeah it's up to me
I can drive
I can shoot a gun in the streets
Score me some heroin
I can jump, be the sacrifice
Bear the cross, just like jesus christ

And I don't wanna hear
What love can do
No, I ain't gonna tell you
What's right for you

Is it right to take the easy way
Close your eyes
Get on your knees an' pray
Now you're saved by a higher voice
Givin' up, givin' up, givin' up your choise
If I'm wrong, then I'll pay for it
It I'm right, yeah you're gonna hear about it
But I've tried, yeah I've tried for it
I tried, I tried, 'til I'm satisfied

And i...
I'm tired of hearing what love can do
And i...
Ain't gonna tell you what's right for you

I've seen the damage done
Down with the shotgun
Don't stop the setting sun on my kingdom come ohhh...

Is it right to take the easy way
I don't know, I get on my knees an' pray
Now I'm saved by a higher voice
Givin' up, givin' up, givin' up my choise
If I'm wrong, then I'll pay for it
If I'm right, yeah you're gonna deal with it
'cause I tried, yeah I tried for it
I'll try, I'll try, even die for it

No i...
Don't wanna hear what love can do
No i...
I can't tell you what's right for you
Oh i... I... I...
Tell you what love can do
No i... I... I...
Can't say but your time is through

I've seen the damge done
Oh lord, I've heard the shotgun
I fought the setting sun
On my kingdom come ohhh...
