Jenni Mosello/ Lucas Vaz/ James Bryan
Nobody should have to tell you what to do
But oh my god you need some clue
I really don't wanna scream at you
But you're forcing me to
And you all that you can do is cry along
Why just for a change wont you stand up
Put your fucking suit and go to work
I can't take this anymore
Instead of crying all day long
Get up on your feet and work it
Work it out
Why cant you
why cant you
why cant you work it out
Listen up boy
Its time for you to choose
I cant keep on holding you
All your life through
Life is too short to spend it all with you
Believe me honey, stop being so fool
I cant take this anymore
Instead of crying all day long
Get up on your feet and work it
Work it out
Why cant you
why cant you
why cant you work it out
Flashback there with me
Oh you used to act so sweet
Sweep me right off my feet Pleaaase
Now everything is hazy
And it's so crazy
I can't take this anymore
Instead of crying all day long
Get up on your feet and work it
Work it out
Why cant you
why cant you
why cant you work it out

Nobody should have to tell you what to do
You should know for yourself what to do without having to be told
But oh my god you need some clue
You are clueless and need some guidance
I really don't wanna scream at you
I don't want to yell at you
But you're forcing me to
You are leaving me with no other choice but to yell at you
I've been here working all day long
I have been working all day
And you all that you can do is cry along
You do nothing but cry
Why just for a change wont you stand up
Why not change and stand up for yourself

Get dressed for work and start working

Believe me, dear, stop being foolish

Oh you used to act so sweet
You used to be so kind

And it is driving me insane
