No Good Advice

Submitted by Andy

Daddy told me look into the future
Sit at your computer, be a good girl.
Mama said remember you're a lady
Think before you play and straighten your curls.
Well, everybody's talking like I'm crazy, dangerous, a lazy girl with no soul
But I've seen it all from where I'm hiding, baby 'cos I'm sliding out of control

Here I go, off the road, crank the stereo
I flick a finger to the world below
Here I am, dirty hands, I don't give a damn
Shut your mouth because your sh*t might show

I don't need no good advice
I've already wasted
I don't need some other life
Cold and complicated
I don't need no Sunday trips
Tea and sympathising
I don't need no special fix
To anaesthetise me.

Daddy always told me to remember, leave the boys 'til later
Don't you drop down.
Mama said I'd never get to heaven
Hanging 'till eleven with the wrong crowd.
Everybody's talking like I'm only, just another phoney girl who got played
But I dig the music that I'm making, baby and I'll break it into your brain

Here I go, off the road, crank the stereo
I flick a finger to the world below
Here I am, dirty hands, I don't give a damn
Shut your mouth because your sh*t might show

I don't need no good advice
I've already wasted
I don't need some other life
Cold and complicated
I don't need no Sunday trips
Tea and sympathising
I don't need no special fix
To anaesthetise me.
[Repeat]

I don't need no good advice
No well-intentioned sacrifice
And. I don't need no Sunday trips
No chocolate box or speed for kicks
Hell, I don't need no beauty sleep
No need to count those dirty sheep
And, I don't need no bedtime prayer
'Cos frankly I don't even care!
