| My mother spent ten years sitting by a window
 | 
| Scared if she spoke, she would die of a heart attack
 | 
| She listened as her dreams silently screamed
 | 
| They drowned like little dolphins caught in a fishnet
 | 
| Dear world, I’m pleased to meet you
 | 
| Hey, everybody, when you walk the walk
 | 
| You gotta back it all up you, can you talk the talk?
 | 
| Hey, everybody when I hear the knock
 | 
| Don’t wanna measure out my life to the tick of a clock?
 | 
| Hey, everybody when my daddy died
 | 
| He had a sad, sad story livin' in his eyes
 | 
| Hey, everybody when you walk the walk
 | 
| You cannot measure out your life to the tick of a clock
 | 
| I wanna walk of my own drum
 | 
| I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| Walk to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| Hey, everybody, when you walk the walk
 | 
| You gotta back it all up but can you talk the talk?
 | 
| Hey, everybody, when I hear the knock
 | 
| Don’t wanna measure out my life to the tick of a clock
 | 
| Hey, every, hey, everybody
 | 
| I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums
 | 
| I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums
 | 
| Walk to the beat of my own drums
 | 
| I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums, hey

 | 
| I wanna live to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| I wanna laugh to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| I wanna hang ten high, say pleased to meet you
 | 
| Take to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| I wanna give to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| Fly, cry, win, lose, live, die, take five
 | 
| Pleased to meet you
 | 
| My Daddy spent ten years living on the outside, looking in
 | 
| He thought that he would never get back, hey, get back
 | 
| Watched his dream walk across a silver screen
 | 
| And he was standing there
 | 
| When the theater went pitch black
 | 
| Dear world I’m pleased to meet you
 | 
| Hey, everybody when I walk the walk
 | 
| I gotta back it all up, can I talk the talk?
 | 
| Hey, everybody, when I hear the knock
 | 
| Don’t wanna measure out my life to the tick of a clock
 | 
| Hey, every, hey every, hey every, hey everybody
 | 
| Can you walk the walk?
 | 
| I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums
 | 
| I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums
 | 
| Walk to the beat of my own drums
 | 
| I wanna walk to the beat of my own drums, hey
 | 
| Play to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| I wanna sing to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| I wanna play to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| I wanna hang ten high, say pleased to meet you
 | 
| Screw up to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| I wanna take it out of town and do it to my drum
 | 
| Scream shout, hide out, win, lose
 | 
| Wipe out, saunter down my street
 | 
| Make love to my baby
 | 
| Make love to my baby
 | 
| It’s a wonderful idea, but it doesn’t work
 | 
| My own drum, my own beat
 | 
| MY own drum, my own, own, own, own
 | 
| Hey, did you ever get the feeling that it’s really a joke?
 | 
| You think you’ve got it figured out
 | 
| And then you find that you don’t?
 | 
| So you say goodbye to the world
 | 
| And now you’re floating in space?
 | 
| You got no sense of nothing not even a time or a place?
 | 
| Then suddenly you hear it, it’s the beat of your heart
 | 
| And for the first time in your life
 | 
| You know your life is about to start?
 | 
| Oh, yeah, bring it on
 | 
| Hey, everybody, hey, everybody
 | 
| Hey, everybody when you walk the walk
 | 
| You gotta back it all, back it all, back it all, back it all up
 | 
| I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| I wanna walk to the beat of my own drum
 | 
| There’s someone knocking in the wall
 | 
| Was it like an echo? |
