Lyrics
What Goes On ã 2007 Thompson/Weatherton
On and on, on & on & on it goes, Over and over, on & on & on it goes
Why can’t they let me be? You don’t own me!
Why can’t anybody see? What goes on…
They waste your time, They take your place.
They drop your name, Just to save face, it goes on & on & on…
They tax you in they tax you out
They tell you what you’re all about, it goes on & on & on…
Over and over, it goes on & on & on, It goes on
You can’t own me! It goes on & on & on…
Why don’t they let me be? You can’t own me!
Why doesn’t anybody see? What goes on…
They build you up, They tear your down.
They take the credit when you’re not around, it goes on & on & on…
You say we’re free, to live our life.
Censor my words, take my rights, it goes on & on & on…
You judge me right, you judge me wrong.
Even when I’m dead and gone, it goes on & on & on…
Over and over, it goes on…
