Like It Or Not

(album: Thirsty Work - 1994)

Isn't it more the way you do it than the way that you look?
Isn't it in the way you use it, not the lessons you took?
Isn't it time you started asking what goes on in your mind?

You won't take no for an answer
Nobody could tell you your place
They'd better not turn round and tell ya
Even if it's straight to your face
I ain't lonely but I'm happy if it makes you feel good
But it's no way, it's a fool's way, it'll end up no good

Isn't it more the way you do it than the way that you look?
Isn't it in the way you use it, not the lessons you took?
Isn't it time you started asking what goes on in your mind?
This is the way I want to do it whether you like it or not
This is the way I gotta tell you and I ain't gonna stop
Baby I should have let you find it out, but in your own time

So don't be scared of the future
Everything is looking real fine
I think my way's gonna suit ya
But only if you're gonna stay mine
And you could do, and you should do, it'll make you feel fine
'Cos the best way is the best way, and we'll make it on time

Well I've been really, really wondering am I losing my mind?
Why do we do the things we shouldn't do? We'd rather be fine
We're in a sticky situation and you really don't mind.
This is the way I want to do it whether you like it or not
This is the way I gotta tell you and I ain't gonna stop
Baby I should have let you find it out, but in your own time

And you could do, and you should do, it'll make you feel fine
'Cos the best way is the best way, and we'll make it on time

Isn't it more the way you do it than the way that you look?
Isn't it in the way you use it, not the lessons you took?
Isn't it time you started asking what goes on in your mind?
This is the way I want to do it whether you like it or not
This is the way I gotta tell you and I ain't gonna stop
We're in a sticky situation and you really don't mind
