Why Do It

by Girls Aloud

on The Singles Box Set (2009), The Collection - Studio Albums / B Sides / Live (2013)

At thirteen, you think its cool to dress all like your friends
By fifteen, youre over it and smoking cigarettes
And now the world's at you
No one has a clue
Your friends say youre cool
So whats the point of school?

Your Mom cries the night
Youre still out of sight
Your head's such a mess
But you still know best

Now tell me where will you be
No house, no clothes, no money
I wonder what they will say?
Sell your body to pay-ay-ay

Why do it? Dont do it
Why do it? Dont do it, fool
Why do it? Dont do it
Why do it? Dont do it, fool

Why do it? Dont do it
Why do it? Dont do it, fool
Why do it? Dont do it
Why do it? Dont do it, fool

You walk around and people look at you
And theyre sad to see a girl whos so confused
And you wonder why they all step away?
When once again its not just today

And now the world's at you
No one has a clue
Your friends say youre cool
So, whats the point of school?

Your Mom cries the night
Youre still out of sight
Your head's such a mess
But you still know best

Soon they wont care any more
So sick of cops at the door
Then youll wish you were Daddys girl
Oh but you havent a clue

Why do it? Dont do it
Why do it? Dont do it, fool
Why do it? Dont do it
Why do it? Dont do it, fool

Why do it? Dont do it
Why do it? Dont do it, fool
Why do it? Dont do it
Why do it? Dont do it, fool

Why do it? Dont do it
Why do it? Dont do it, fool
Why do it? Dont do it
Why do it? Dont do it, fool

Why do it? Dont do it
Why do it? Dont do it, fool
Why do it? Dont do it
Why do it? Dont do it, fool

Boop a doop a doop
Boop a doop a doop
Boop a doop a doop
Boop a doop a doop
Oooo, do do do do

Ah, be-boop a doop a doop
Boop a doop a doop
Boop a doop a doop
Boop a doop a doop
Oooo

(repeat until fade)
