217. Do What You Gotta Do
Dove Cameron & Cheyenne Jackson Lyrics

Listen, little girl
I am in a position of power over you.

You're talking to a God
I have an elevated status compared to you.

And I don't wanna hear the drama
I am not interested in listening to your problems.

Kindness ain't my brand
Being kind is not my style.

Oh, I guess that's why you ran
You didn't want to be around me because I am not kind.

Try being married to your mama!
It was difficult to be in a relationship with your mother.

You stink at being a dad
You are a bad father.

Poor Mali, are you sad?
Your daughter is unhappy because of your actions.

Not as sad as you without your powers
You are dependent on your powers for your happiness.

I didn't come to fight
I didn't come here to argue.

For once, do something right
Make a good decision for once.

I steal souls, were you expecting flowers?
I have a dark occupation and am not someone who would do something romantic.

I only need you 'cause I came here for something
I only came to see you because I have a specific purpose.

I've given you everything, by giving you nothing
I have not given you anything of true value.

No, you only did what's best for you
Your actions were motivated by your own self-interest.

Well, you could learn a thing or two
You could benefit from learning from me.

You were never there
You were absent from my life.

Guess you don't have a phone
You did not have a way to contact me.

You never called to say, "I miss you"
You did not express any emotional connection to me.

Ha ha ha, are you kidding? Is this a joke?
You are not capable of making sincere emotional connections.

You need to let it go
You need to move on from the past.

You're stronger with those daddy issues
Your past experiences have made you more resilient.

Show me some respect
You need to treat me with more respect.

It ain't easy to neglect
Ignoring someone is not an easy thing to do.

My attention would've made you softer
If I had paid attention to you, you would have been less tough.

Ooh-hoo! Should I be proud?
You are being sarcastic.

Don't turn this thing around
Don't try to change the subject.

I guess you are your father's daughter, ha, ha, ha
You have inherited traits from your father.

I made it on my own, no thanks to you
I succeeded without your help.

How 'bout I go with you and we'll spend some time?
Let's spend some quality time together.

How 'bout you stay here 'cause you're out of your mind!
You are crazy for thinking we can have a good relationship.

Let's make new memories, you can show me the town
Let's create positive experiences together in this place.

No, you can keep your memories now
I am not interested in any memories we share.

Get over it
You need to move on from the past.

I am over it!
I have already moved on from the past.

I'm over you being over it!
I am still holding on to some negative feelings toward you.

Let's dance
Let's enjoy the moment, without discussing the past.

When push comes to shove, you do
In difficult situations, you will take whatever action is necessary.

When push comes to shove
In a difficult situation.

You do what you gotta do, yeah
You will do whatever it takes to handle the situation.

Ha, please
You are dismissing someone's suggestion or request.
