My Way

La la la-la-la la la la la (x4)
I'm not perfect, I'm just who I am
Is that okay?
Perfect's overdone and overplanned
In the modern age
Still you say you know what's best
I disagree but I know less
So then that leaves us back where we began
Your way
And even when me and you do
Everything you wanted to
Well, I've got news for you
Hey, everybody loves to tell me who and what to be
More of what they always want and less and less of me
Well, I don't give a damn what they all say
I'm not here to save the day
I may lose it but I'll do it my way
La la la-la-la la la la la (x3)
Friends and teachers, Heads of State and fools
All say
"Lay it down and play it by the rules"
Their way
And if they all know so well
Why can no one ever tell?
And they ask why we rebel
Hey, everybody loves to tell me who and what to be
More of what they always want and less and less of me
Well, I don't give a damn what they all say
I'm not here to save the day
I may lose it but I'll do it my way
Everybody wants to prove to the world they've got it figured out
Be somebody with the nerve to admit it when it's all in doubt
In the end it's not pretend, it's what the world's about
Everybody loves to tell me who and what to be
More of what they always want and less and less of me
Well, I don't give a damn what they all say
I'm not here to save the day
I may lose it but I'll do it my way
Everybody loves to tell me who and what to be
More of what they always want and less and less of me
Well, I don't give a damn what they all say
I'm not here to save the day
I may lose it but I'll lose it my way
