Don't Let Them Mess With You

Things to do
There's things to say
Sometimes you might
Get in the way.
But whatever you do
Don't let them mess with you.
Oh, whatever you do
Don't let them mess with you.

Open up your windows
Open up the doors
Open up your mother
Put her on the floor.
Oh, whatever you do
Don't let them mess with you.
Oh, whatever you do
Don't let them mess with you.

I got one hand tied
It's behind my back
I can count on what I have
And the things that I lack.
Oh, whatever you do
Don't let them mess with you.
Oh, whatever you do
Don't let them mess with you.

There's carpet on the furniture
Carpet on the walls
Carpet in the alleyway
Carpet in the halls.
Oh, whatever you do
Don't let them mess with you.
Oh, whatever you do
Don't let them mess with you.

I got one hand loose
I got one hand tied
I'm looking everywhere
For some kind of a sign.
Oh, whatever you do
Don't let them mess with you.
Oh, whatever you do
Don't let them mess with you.
