Lyrics
“Who Do You Answer To”
(Lyrics: M. Novak, C. Webster - Music: T. Newton)
Nature answers to no one, why do we
In order to survive we live in a community
Children danced to the song of their parents
Towing the line with or without their presence
Who do you answer to
Who do you answer to
CHORUS:
Who do you answer to - Parents and Teachers
Who do you answer to
Who do you answer to - Cops and God
Who do you answer to
Who do you answer to - Spouse and kids
Who do you answer to
Who do you answer to
Who do you answer to - It should be you
Who do you answer to
Who you answer to continues to grow
Spouse, kids, jobs and the people you don’t know
This prison contains you and all can see
But the facades not real are you truly happy
CHORUS:
Spouse and kids may give you permission
You now answer to them with few conditions
Work is required we all have a boss
We answer to many there’s always gain and loss
CHORUS:
Some choose more freedom with fewer to answer to
With no kids or spouse there’s a different view
There are Pros and Cons no matter the choice
Whatever the path you must don't you loose your voice
CHORUS:
