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.

You're burnin' my heart

You're burnin' my mind

You're spoilin' my art

You're wasting my time

No taste in your actions

No taste in your line

No tears now

Just don't do you ever mind

You say you wanna be a superstar

You're givin' up half to get that far

You say you wanna ride a diamond car

But I don't like your fancy car

Hey hey hey, don't you wanna see

I'm not your steppin' stone

Hey hey hey, I've gotta be free

So leave my life alone

So leave my life alone

So leave my life alone

You're in love with success

You're spilling my wine

No part of my address, babe

Your ways aren't mine

You may got the money

But your wastin' my life

I'm not your Bugs Bunny

And you're not my wife

You say you only do it for affect

But you don't wanna see what I detest

I think you're depraved

I'm gonna leave you so

But you can't see what I see so let me go

Hey hey hey, don't you wanna see

I'm not your steppin' stone

Hey hey hey, I've gotta be free

So leave my life alone

So leave my life alone

So leave my life alone

Hey hey hey, don't you wanna see

I'm not your steppin' stone

Hey hey hey, I've gotta be free

So leave my life alone

So leave my life alone

So leave my life alone

Hey hey hey, don't you wanna see

I'm not your steppin' stone

Hey hey hey, I've gotta be free

So leave my life alone

So leave my life alone
