| Father, father speaking out
|
| Wants to tell you what it’s all about
|
| But you don’t listen, you don’t care
|
| No one tells you what to do around here
|
| Got your girl, and it’s all good
|
| You’re so tired of being so misunderstood
|
| You’d love to get him off your back
|
| You just want him to cut you some slack
|
| You said, «He don’t know where I’m at», yeah
|
| Get what you give, don’t you know, don’t you know
|
| You get what you give
|
| That’s right, that’s right
|
| That’s how it is, don’t you know, don’t you know
|
| Lost the key that locks your room
|
| And momma’s gonna be home soon
|
| Guess this means you’ve got to lie
|
| You ain’t got no other alibi
|
| Get what you give, don’t you know, don’t you know
|
| You get what you give, yeah
|
| That’s how it is, don’t you know, don’t you know
|
| (What you give, is what you get)
|
| Tell your daddy you’ll be fine
|
| Not to worry you’ll get by
|
| Grow your hair and change your name
|
| Pack your bags and runaway
|
| Get what you give, don’t you know, don’t you know
|
| You get what you give
|
| That’s how it is, don’t you know, don’t you know
|
| You get what you give
|
| Get what you give, don’t you know, don’t you know
|
| You get what you give
|
| That’s how it is, don’t you know, don’t you know
|
| You get what you give |
