Teach me
MMMM,
What's it like to stop and smell the roses?
What's it like to sight see on the way?
My whole life has always been full throttle.
A constant struggle to get ahead.
Never having to wait to wait for a door to open.
Someone always there telling you where to go.
But sometimes I want to do things on my own.
Sometimes I want to learn what to do.
Tell me how to solve the problem
Don't say here I did for you.
At least you taught me to stand on my two feet,
But how do I turn this thing on.
At least I can say my own words.
But what am I gonna do when your gone?
Give me some berries I'll eat for a day
Show me where to find them and I'll never hunger again.
But sometimes I want to do things on my own.
Sometimes I want to learn what to do.
Tell me how to solve the problem
Don't say here I did for you.
Some will say I lived a charmed life
Spent my days sucking on a silver spoon
But when its time to be on my own, at least you'll know what to do.
But sometimes I want to do things on my own.
Sometimes I want to learn what to do.
Tell me how to solve the problem
Don't say here I did for you. (x2)
