Ballad of Big Nothing

All spit and spite you're up all night

And down every day
Whenever you want to
Getting in to the back of a car
The helpless little thing with the dirty mouth
Having had enough of it all
There's no one to stop you"

Do what you want to
There's no one to stop you

You can do what you want to
Waiting for your brother to call
You're sitting around at home now
Whenever you want to
Whenever you want to
Who's always got something to say

You can do what you want to
You can do what you want to

For candy from some stranger
Just waiting to be taken away
Whenever you want to
Now, you can do what you want to
Said, "You can do what you want to
Full of smoldering anger
I saw him down at the alley

Do what you want to
Watching the parade with pinpoint eyes
Whenever you want to
Though it doesn't mean a thing
A tired man with only hours to go
