if life is such a drag, and they can do it better
let 'em take you miles from home tonight
if life is such a drag, and they can do it better
let 'em take you miles from home
you say that you care for the people you fail
tell them what you wanna do
tell them what you wanna do
love or revenge that they've forgotten
tell them what you wanna do
tell them what you wanna do
tell them what the hell you choose

to let them take you from your good life (why don't you)
let them take you from your good life

if life is such a drag, and this will make it better
let 'em take you miles from home tonight
if daddy isn't there, and mommy doesn't care
let 'em take you miles from home
the smiles you once fail, now leave you aware
tell them what you wanna do
tell them what you wanna do
rich little girl is taking a stand
tell them what you wanna do
tell them what you wanna do
tell them what the hell you choose

to let them take you from your good life (why don't you)
let them take you from your good life

is it better to judge all the clothes that you wear,
to pick up a gun and put your fist in the air,
no fantasy reality, it's what's really out there
tell them what you want to do
tell them what you want to do

in a burned out square in the suburbs, ???
the little girl on the move,
in the end you always chose the silver spoon

it's what's best for you

so tell them why don't you
let them take you from your good life (why don't you)
to let them take you from your good life (what you choose)
to let them take you from your good life (why don't you)
