Peter Gabriel - D I Y LYRICS

Don’t tell me what I will do, ’cos I won’t

Don’t tell me to believe in you, ’cos I don’t

Be on your guard, better hostile and ha

--don’t risk affection

Like flesh to the bone in the no-go zone

You’re still waiting for teh resurrection

Come up to me with your "what did you say? "

And I’ll tell you straight in the eye



D.i.y. d.i.y. d.i.y. d.i.y. d.i.y. d.i.y. d.i.y. d.i.y.

Do it yourself



Everyone want to be what he not, what he not

Nobody happy with what he got, what he got

You function like a dummy with a new ventriloquist

Do you say nothing yourself?

Hanging like a thriller on the final twist

--you know you’re getting stuck on the shelf

Come up to me with your "what did you say? "

And I’ll tell you straight in the eye



D.i.y. d.i.y. d.i.y. d.i.y.



When things get so big, I don’t trust them at all

You want some control -- you’ve got to keep it small



D.i.y. d.i.y. d.i.y. d.i.y.

Do it yourself
