Don'T Tell Me What To Do -Angie's Rap Song-

1st Verse-

Why can't I do things the way I wish
and you do the same
this cigarette ration is making my stomach squish
I'm not just some dame

We both used to smoke back when
but you quit
you never got headaches then
this I do spit

Chorus-

I don't tell you what to do
don't tell me what to do
we both should wear the pants
seize the ants

2nd Verse-

When you're driving me places
I fear for my life
when you pull into parking spaces
I'm beneath the knife

I don't complain
why would you put me through this prop
this is pain
you need to stop

Chorus-

I don't tell you what to do
don't tell me what to do
we both should wear the pants
seize the ants

3rd Verse-

You rot out my brain with the TV set
I sit quietly while you watch I'm sweet
we used to crank up the music instead
Corona Virus would've been obsolete

I wouldn't have even known there was one
because we never watched the news
unless somebody told me son
now I feel the bruise

Chorus-

I don't tell you what to do
don't tell me what to do
we both should wear the pants
seize the ants

I was a songwriter years ago. I wrote and did demo's for several music stars in Nashville. I quit that and started writing poetry. Recently, started writing a little bit on the music side again. This Rap was just something to have fun with. Thank you for asking :)
