Walk the Walk

Mother spent ten years sitting by a window

Scared if she spoke she would die of a heart attack

She listened as her dreams silently screamed

They drowned like little dolphins caught in a fishnet

Dear world I'm pleased to meet you

Hey everybody when you walk the walk

You gotta back it all up can you talk the talk?

Hey everybody when I hear the knock

Don't wanna measure out my life to the tick of a clock

Hey everybody when my daddy died

He had a sad sad story living in his eyes

Hey everybody when you walk the walk

You can not measure out your life to the tick of a clock

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum

Walk to the beat of my own drum

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum

Hey everybody

When you walk the walk

You gotta back it all up

Can you talk the talk?

Hey everybody

When I hear the knock

You wanna measure out my life

To the tick of a clock

Hey every-, hey everybody

Can you walk the walk?

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums

(Say wha-wha-what you wanna?)

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums

(Say wha-wha-what you wanna?)

Walk to the beat of my own drums

(Say wha-wha-what you wanna?)

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums

(Say wha-wha-what you wanna?)

Walk to the beat of my own drum

I wanna live to the beat of my own drum

I wanna laugh to the beat of my own drum

I wanna hang ten, hi, say pleased to meet you

Take to the beat of my own drum

I wanna give to the beat of my own drum

Fly, cry, win, lose, live, die, take five

Pleased to meet you

My daddy spent ten years living on the outside looking in

He thought that he would never get back, hey, get back

Watched his dream walk across a silver screen

And he was standing there when the theater went pitch black

Dear world I'm pleased to meet you

Hey everybody when I walk the walk

I gotta back it all up can I talk the talk?

Hey everybody when I hear the knock

Don't wanna measure out my life to the tick of a clock

Hey every-,

Hey every-,

Hey every-,

Hey everybody

Can you walk the walk?

Walk, walk, walk

Can you walk the walk?

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums

(Say wha-wha-what you wanna?)

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums

(Say wha-wha-what you wanna?)

Walk to the beat of my own drums

(Say wha-wha-what you wanna?)

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums

(Say wha-wha-what you wanna?)

Hey,

Play to the beat of my own drum

I wanna sing to the beat of my own drum

I wanna play to the beat of my own drum

I wanna hang ten, hi, say pleased to meet you

Screw up to the beat of my own drum

I wanna dig it out of dirt and do it to my drum

Scream shout

Wipe out

Win, lose, wipe out

Saunter down my street

Make love to my baby

To my baby

Make love to my baby

To my baby, oh

Father :

It's a wonderful idea, but it doesn't work.

My own drum, my own beat

My own drum, my own beat

Did you ever get the feeling that it's really a joke

You think you've got it figured out and then you find that you don't

So you say goodbye to the world and now you're floating in space

You got no sense of nothing not even a time or a place

Suddenly you hear it is the beat of your heart

And for the first time in your life you know your life is about to start

Oh, yeah, when you're alone

Hey everybody

Hey everybody

Hey everybody when you walk the walk

You gotta back it up, back it up, back it up, back it what?

Say wha-wha-wha-wha-wha-wha-wha-wha-wha-what you wanna?

Say wha-wha-wha-wha-wha-wha-wha-wha-wha-what you wanna?

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums

Hey everybody, hey everybody

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums

Hey everybody, hey everybody

I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums

Daughter :

There's someone knocking in the wall. Was it like an echo?

Ba da pa pa...
