I Do What I Like



I do what I like and I like what I do
and I'll do whatever I feel
Stop trying to control me you never could
and you never will
Get off my back you crazy fool
before I teach you a thing or two
All you been doing is naggin lately
It's not my job to make you happy
I'm doing my best that's all I can do
I've really tried to satisfy
If that's not enough well so what guy!
I do what I like and I like what I do
and I'll do whatever I feel
Stop trying to control me
you never could and you never will
I'm not trying to make you angry
I'm just trying to keep it real
Listen to all the words I'm sayin
I swear to God man I'm not playin!
