And made a poster
I saw her face outside today
Is there just what is on my mind
But when you feel so powerless, what are you gonna do
Burn every notion that I
'Cause this life is too short to live it just for you
What we are hidin'
Paint me over with your dreams
May have a flame inside to fight
Life is too short, just for you
Say what you want, say what you want
Say what you want, say what you want

Took her passion and her gaze
Say, say, say, say, yeah
But say what you want, say what you want, say, say, yeah
But when you feel so powerless, what are you gonna do
Yeah, this life is too short to live it just for you
Paint my face in your magazines
'Cause this life is too short to live it just for you
Hey you, the one outside, are you ever gonna get in with your
Say what you want, say what you want
'Cause this life is too short to live it just for you
But when you feel so powerless what are you gonna do
But when you feel so powerless, what are you gonna do
Feel powerless, gonna do
Hey you, the one that don't fit in, how ya, how ya gonna get in
But when you feel so powerless what are you gonna do
Now it's moccasins we sport
'Cause this life is too short to live it just for you
So say what you want, say what you want
Shove away my ethnicity
Without offending your might
We take the culture and contort
Make it look whiter than it seems
Perhaps only to distort
