lyrics

No no no don’t you do it
No don’t you do it
No no don’t do it
Don’t do what you’re dying to do

No don’t do it
Oh no no no don’t you do it
Oh no no don’t you do it
Don’t you do what you’re dying to do

I can see it as you both decide
To ride a ride you can’t afford to ride
Coney Island on the Southern coast
Don’t look now but your friend is a ghost

No, don’t do it
Oh no no no don’t you do it
Oh no no no don’t do it
Don’t do what you’re dying to do

One, just one, thy will be done
In a world of doubles
Two, it’s true, it will not do
When a sea of troubles drinks you down

No no don’t you do it
Oh no nuh no nuh no don’t you do it
Oh no don’t you do it
You should not do what you’re dying to do

I can see it as you both decide
To run the red and the yellow lights
Photograph you with your apple phone
There’s no one home; you’re standing alone

No, don’t do it
Don’t do what you’re dying to do
