If life is such a drag and they can do it better,
Let them take you miles from home tonight.
If life is such a drag and they can do it better,
Let them take you miles from home.
You say that you care for the people you fed.
Then tell them what you wanna do,
Tell them what you wanna do.
Is it love or revenge to pay for dad's sins?
Tell them what you wanna do,
Tell them why the hell you chose
To let them take you from your good life.
Why did you
Let them take you from your good life?

If life is such a drag and this will make it better,
Let them take you miles from home tonight.
If daddy isn't there, and mommy doesn't care
Let them take you miles from home.
From a smile to a stare, naive to aware.
Tell them what you wanna do,
Tell them what you wanna do.
A rich little girl is taking a stand.
Tell them what you wanna do,
Tell them why the hell you chose
To let them take you from your good life.
Why did you
Let them take you from your good life?

Is it better to change all the clothes that you wear?
To pick up a gun and put your fist in the air?
Was it sad to see reality and what's really out there?
Tell them what you wanna do,
Tell them what you wanna do.

In a burned out squat in the suburbs a lover is dead,
Lawyers wait, there's wanted SLA,
And a little girl on the move.
In the end you'll always choose the silver spoon.
It's what's best for you!

So tell them why did you
Let them take you from your good life?
Why did you
Let them take you from your good life?
Why did you
Let them take you from your good life?
Why did you
Let them take you from your good life?
Why did you
