[Verse]
G Gm D Bm E7 Throwing candy out to the crowd, dragging down the main G Gm D Bm E7 Helpless little thing with the dirty mouth who's always got something to say G Gm D Bm E7 You're sitting around at home just waiting for your brother to call G Gm G A I saw him down in the alley, having had enough of it all
Said you can
[Chorus]
D Bm G A Do what you want to whenever you want to D Bm G Gm You can do what you want to, there's no one to stop you
[Verse]
G Gm D E7 All spit and spite, you're up all night and down every day G Gm D E7 A tired man with only hours to go just waiting to be taken away G Gm D Bm E7 Getting into the back of a car for candy from some stranger G Gm G A Watching the parade with pinpoint eyes full of smoldering anger
[Chorus]
D Bm G A Do what you want to whenever you want to D Bm G A You can do what you want to, there's no one to stop you D Bm You can do what you want to whenever you want to D Bm Do what you want to whenever you want to G Gm Do what you want to whenever you want to D E G Gm though it doesn't mean a thing D Bm D Bm D Big nothing
