lyrics

They said you shouldn’t do it, and so you did.
You got a room full of applause.
It’s something I have done before; I’ll do again.
I’ll do it just because.

I found a time machine in my back yard.
The dial was set for fifteen years.
I closed the hatch, and flipped the switch, and pulled the rod.
I didn’t have to steer.

Everybody come here now.
I’ve got something to calm you down.
And I’ve got something else too:
That’s not me. That’s you!

I rode a southbound train like they do in all those songs
Where someone leaves to seek their soul.
We got to New Orleans, but before too long.
I knew I had to go back home.

Everybody come here now.
I’ve got something to help you settle yourself down.
And I’ve got something else too:
That’s not me. That’s you!

They said you shouldn’t do it, and so you did.
You got a room full of applause.
It’s something I have done before; I’ll do again.
I’ll do it just because.
I’ll do it just because.
I’ll do it just because.
