lyrics

You can do what you want and you know that,
You can do me a favor and then turn your back,
I'm low down to the ground,
You can do what you want and you know that,
You can do me a favor and then turn your back,
I'm low down to the ground,
You can do what you want and you can like it,
I should have known I'm the carpet you walk on to make you feel at home,

In my dictation I never learn,
I can't make you walk like you can with one word,
If I speak out you are the only one who's heard,

You can do what you want and you know that,
You can do me a favor and then turn your back,
I'm down low to the ground,
You can do what you want and believe it,
I should have known you'd be leaving,
I wanna know you're feeling down,

In my dictation I never learn,
I can't make you walk like you can with one word,
If I speak out you are the only one who's heard,
Laugh at me and I'll still take it, laugh at my imagination,

You can do what you want and I'm below that,
You can do me a favor and I'll turn right back,
I'm low down to the ground the ground,
You can do what you want and I'm so patient,
You can draw all the lines but I'll erase them,
Till I'm six feet in the ground
