Do/Don't Lyrics


It’s another fine day in the world’s biggest one-horse town
Grown-up children at play in the kingdom of light and sound
It’s the start of the hour of the next greatest power-to-be
I’m that downtown contender, yeah –
You find exactly what you need in me
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
Let’s get away from here
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
Whatever you do/don’t fear
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
I thought you were having fun
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
What you do/don’t run, don’t run, don’t run
Yes, the bronze is so dirty on my
Statue in the square downtown

Once it shone like a hero’s helmet
It shone like a crown
You could call on your sister
Even call the little mister with the candy-kilo pound
But it’s been a little while
Since they all came up to smile
up at my statue in the square downtown
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
What will tomorrow bring?
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
It’s never a do/don’t thing
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
It’s simply a matter of
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
Whatever you do for love
Now I made a deal for my future
I was needlessly obscure
But I did not see the downside, yes
I got to go back on tour
First call session or jingle
Is that a deal, that allure?
Ev’rybody is building their statues
Is it a curse or cure?
Now I’m honored by money
Hey, my name is even carved in stone
They tell me I’m dug by the millions
Cool to the proverbial bone
Now my manager’s exiled
He just did not have the style
And one more time I’m on my own
From Porcaro to the Prine
Forever you will find
They all got statues in the square downtown
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
Let’s get away from here
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
Whatever you do/don’t fear
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
Thought you were having fun
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
What you do/don’t run, don’t run, don’t run
Yes, that bronze is so dirty on my
Statue in the square downtown
I’ve got my eye on that record guy
Chasin’ him all around town
Get the video rotation
To sweep the very nation
With the perfect platinum sound
I’m a musical magician, there is no competition
Another statue in the square downtown
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
Let’s get away from here
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
Whatever you do/don’t fear
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
I thought you were having fun
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
What you do/don’t run, don’t run
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
What will tomorrow bring?
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
It’s never a do/don’t thing
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
Simply a matter of
Hey, did you know you never did do this before
Whatever you do for love
Whatever you do for love, for love
Whatever you do for love, for love
Whatever you do for love
Whatever you do for love
Do for love
You do for love...
