Lyrics
All I Really Want To do
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All I really want to do is baby be friends with you
I don't want to compete with you
Beat or cheat or mistreat you
Classify ya, simplify ya, deny, defy or crucify you
All I really want to do is baby be friends with you
Baby be friends with you
No, I ain't lookin to fight with you
Frighten you, up-tighten you
Bring you down or chain you down
Drag you down, or bring you down
Chorus x2
I don't want to meet your kin
Make you spin or do you in
Or select you or dissect you
Or respect you or reject you
Chorus
