Paint my face in your magazines
  Make it look whiter than it seems
  Paint me over with your dreams
  Shove away my ethnicity
  Burn every notion that I may have a flame inside to fight
  And say just what is on my mind
  Without offending your might
  
  Cuz this life is too short to deal it just for you
  But when you feel so powerless what are you gonna do
  So say what you want
  Say what you want
  
  I saw her face outside today
  Weatherworn, looking all the rage
  They took her passion and her gaze and made a poster
  Now it's moccasins we sport
  We take the culture and contort
  Perhaps only to distort what we are hiding
  
  Cuz this life is too short to deal it just for you
  But when you feel so powerless what are you gonna do
  But say what you want
  Say what you want
  Say, say, yeah
  
  Hey you, the one outside, are you ever gonna get in, get in
  Hey you, the one that don't fit in, how ya, how ya gonna get in
  Hey you, the one outside, are you ever gonna get in with your
  Broken teeth, broken jaw, broken mojo
  
  Yeah, this life is too short to live it just for you
  But when you feel so powerless what are you gonna do
  
  Cuz this life is too short to deal it just for you
  But when you feel so powerless what are you gonna do
  
  Cuz this life is too short to live it just for you
  But when you feel so powerless what are you gonna do
  Say what you want, say what you want, say what you want, say what you want, say what you want, say what you want, say, say, say, say
  
  Life is too short
  Just for you
  Feel powerless
  Gonna do
