Doin' The Things That We Want To

(album: New Sensations - 1984)

The other night we went to see sam's play
Doing the things that we want to
It was very physical it held you to the stage
Doing the things that he wants to

Doing the things that he wants to

The guy's a cowboy from some rodeo
Doing the things that he wants to
The girl had once loved him, but now she want to go
Doing the things that she wants to

Doing the things that she wants to

The man was bullish, the woman was a tease
Doing the things that they want to
They fought with their words, their bodies and their deeds
Doing the things that they want to
When they finished fighting, they exited the stage
Doing the things that they want to
I was firmly struck by the way they had behaved
Doing the things that they want to

Doing the things that they want to
Hey

It reminds me of the movies marty made about new york

(doing the things that he wants to)
Those frank and brutal movies that are so brilliant
(doing the things that he wants to)
"true love" meet "the raging bull"
(doing the things that he wants to)
They're very inspirational, I love the things they do
(doing the things that he wants to)

Doing the things that I want to

There's not much you hear on the radio today
(doing the things that we want to)
But you could still see a movie or a play
(doing the things that we want to)
Here's to "travis bickle" and here's "johnny boy"
(doing the things that we want to)
Growing up in the mean streets of new york
(doing the things that we want to)
I wrote this song 'cause I'd like to shake your hand
(doing the things that we want to)
In a way you guys are the best friends I ever had
(doing the things that we want to)

Doing the things that we want to

That we want to
A true love
