Lyrics System - LaBelle

System

System don’t you bother me.
I’ve been here for a day.
Don’t you try to run her life.
I can’t live your way.
Don’t you try to hassle me.
Saying what’s wrong or right.
I’ve got to do what’s best for me.
I can’t live your life.
I don’t know why.
You don’t know where you been.
I might not know where I’m going
And it’s up to me whatever you’re gonna be in the end.
I’m not here to bother you.
I don’t want to run your life.
It’s just that I’ve got another point of view.
There is a left and right.
Please don’t take that attitude.
Now who’s reflecting who?
I control the multitudes.
Tell me which one would you choose?
And it’s up to me whatever you’re gonna be in the end.
System. Don’t bother me.
System. Don’t worry me.
I’ve got to do what comes naturally.
And this system is killing me.
Oh system. Don’t you bother me.
I’ve been here for years and years and years.
I know the forms and tricks you take.
Half triples tears.
Please don’t look so put upon.
It’s only give and take.
And the games you play with lives and minds.
Leaves nothing in between.
And I know who you are.
But it’s up to me whatever she’s gonna be in the end.
System. Don’t bother me.
System. Don’t worry me.
I’ve got to do what comes naturally.
And this system is killing me.
