Do What U Want
leaks.gaga Lyrics

Huh oh
Sound effect depicting the start of a new section of the song

Yeah yeah
Sound effect emphasizing the start of a new section of the song

Huh oh
Sound effect marking a transitional section of the song

Whoa whoa
Sound effect used to express surprise or shock

Oh
Sound effect concluding a section of the song

I
Narrator speaking about themselves

I feel good
The singer feels good about themselves

I walk alone
The artist is independent and self-sufficient

But then I trip over myself and I fall, I
Although the artist is self-sufficient, they still make mistakes

I stand up
The artist tries to move on from their mistakes

And then I'm OK
The singer recovers from their mistakes

But then you print some shit that makes me want to scream
The media publishes negative things about the artist, causing them frustration

So do what you want, what you want with my body
The singer is willing to give their body to another person if it means they can have control over their own life

Do what you want, don't stop, let's party
The singer wants to enjoy life and have fun regardless of what other people may say or do

Write what you want, say what you want 'bout me
The singer acknowledges that people will say negative things about them and decides to ignore it

If you're wondering, know that I'm not sorry
The artist doesn't feel apologetic for their actions or the way others perceive them

You can't have my heart and you won't use my mind but
The artist is unwilling to allow another person to control their emotions or thoughts

My bones hurt from all the show hmm
The singer is physically exhausted from performing

But I don't feel the pain 'cause I'm a pro I
The singer is used to the physical demands of performing and doesn't allow it to affect their performance

I sink in and then I'm okay eh,
The artist becomes completely immersed in their performance which helps them to overcome their physical exhaustion

'Cause my body belongs to you when I'm on stage eh
The artist gives their body to the audience during their performance

Sometimes I'm scared I suppose
The artist admits to experiencing fear and doubts

If you ever let me go
The singer fears losing control over their own life

I would fall apart (apart)
The artist would not know how to handle the situation if someone takes control over their life

If you break my heart
The singer is afraid of being hurt emotionally

So just take my body
The singer is willing to give their body to another person as a way of keeping control over their own life

And don't stop the party (ayy)
The singer wants to continue having fun and enjoying their life despite their fears and doubts

What you want, Lady Gaga?
Another voice in the song directed towards Lady Gaga herself, asking her what she wants to do

What you want with my body
The artist is asking Lady Gaga what she wants to do with their body

What you want with me
The singer is asking Lady Gaga what she wants from them

What you want with my body
The singer is asking Lady Gaga what she wants to do with their body

Help me now
The artist is asking for assistance

Do what you want with my body (world, what you want with my body)
The artist is addressing everyone in the world, asking them what they want to do with their body
