Did you ever stop to listen
To what you're missin', in the things you say
If you open up your eyes
Than you'll realize, what I say
You can do what you want to
You can do if you try
You can do what you want to
You can do if you try
You take that golden rule
That you learned in school
And just throw it away
If you're well directed
Then you're protected, from the evil ways
[Chorus:]
You can do what you want to
You can do if you try
