Yeah yeah
Huh oh
Whoa whoa
Oh

I feel good
I walk alone
But then I trip over myself and I fall, I
I stand up
And then I'm OK
But then you print some shit that makes me want to scream
So do what you want, what you want with my body
Do what you want, don't stop, let's party
Do what you want, what you want with my body
Do what you want, what you want with my body
Write what you want, say what you want 'bout me
If you're wondering, know that I'm not sorry
Do what you want, what you want with my body
What you want with my body
You can't have my heart and you won't use my mind but
Do what you want with my body
Do what you want with my body
You can't stop my voice 'cause
You don't own my life but
Do what you want with my body
Do what you want with my body
My bones hurt from all the show hmm
But I don't feel the pain 'cause I'm a pro I
I sink in and then I'm okay eh,
'Cause my body belongs to you when I'm on stage eh
So do what you want, what you want with my body
Do what you want, don't stop, let's party
Do what you want, what you want with my body
Do what you want, what you want with my body
Write what you want, say what you want 'bout me
If you're wondering, know that I'm not sorry
Do what you want, what you want with my body
What you want with my body!
You can't have my heart and
You won't use my mind but
Do what you want with my body
Do what you want with my body
You can't stop my voice 'cause
You don't own my life but
Do what you want with my body
Do what you want with my body
Sometimes I'm scared I suppose
If you ever let me go
I would fall apart (apart)
If you break my heart
So just take my body
And don't stop the party (ayy)
You can't have my heart
And you won't use my mind but
Do what you want with my body
Do what you want with my body
You can't stop my voice 'cause
You don't own my life but

What you want with my body (world, what you want with my body)
Do what you want with my body
The lyrics of Lady Gaga's song Do What U Want contain themes of power dynamics, specifically in the music industry. Gaga sings about feeling good and confident, but at times becoming vulnerable to the media's harsh criticism. She expresses frustration with journalists who write about her without regard for how it will affect her emotional well-being. At the same time, she acknowledges that her body is a part of her public image and feels that she has to let others do what they want with it. She also conveys the sense that her voice and mind belong only to herself, and that others can't use them for their own purposes.
Overall, the song is an anthem for self-empowerment and the right to control one's own body and mind. Gaga seems to be saying that while she may feel pressure to conform to society's expectations, she ultimately has the power to decide what she wants for herself. By asserting this message through her music, she encourages listeners to do the same.

I stand up
But I always pick myself up and keep going
And then I'm OK
And I am strong enough to handle criticism
But then you print some shit that makes me want to scream
But when you publish negative and hurtful things about me, it's difficult for me to stay calm and composed

My bones hurt from all the show hmm
Performing takes a significant physical toll on me
But I don't feel the pain 'cause I'm a pro I
But I have become experienced in dealing with the physical challenges of performing
I sink in and then I'm okay eh,
I immerse myself in my performance and become emotionally invested in it
'Cause my body belongs to you when I'm on stage eh
On stage, my body is a part of my performance and is used to entertain and please the audience
Sometimes I'm scared I suppose
Sometimes I feel vulnerable and afraid
If you ever let me go
If I lose the approval and adoration of my fans
I would fall apart (apart)
I would be emotionally devastated
If you break my heart
If my fans turn against me or stop supporting me
So just take my body
So I offer myself to my fans completely
And don't stop the party (ayy)
And I will continue to perform and entertain my fans, no matter what

I love their voices together. Especially during the chorus when they're layered on top of each other. Neither one is outdoing the other. They both complement each other so well.
