What Do You Care

(Robert Palmer)

You’re such a rebel now can you remember when
They used to think you knew what added up to ten
You’re sick and tired of taking punches to your side
Now you’re gonna add it up to any number that you like

Tell me what do you care
Bout’ what other people think
(What do you care)
What do you care
Bout’ what other people think
(What do you care)

You thought there’d always be another shot to take
You crave attention now with every move you make
You like to advertise your interest in success
But you don’t know on the score
of who you’re trying to impress

Tell me what do you care
Bout’ what other people think
(What do you care)
What do you care
Bout’ what other people think

Baby yeah yeah
Everybody’s gonna have their say
You can’t please everyone
Why delay what you say
Let’s decide to name the day

What do you care
Bout’ what other people think
(What do you care)
What do you care
Bout’ what other people think
(What do you care)

No matter what you need I’ll never be your fool
Do me a favour and I’ll do the same for you
Go ahead do what you have to do
Don’t worry if you should do it
Tell me you love me now
Oh girl I wish you would do it

What do you care
Bout’ what other people think
(What do you care)
What do you care
Bout’ what other people think
(What do you care)
What do you care
Bout’ what other people think
(What do you care)
What do you care
Bout’ what other people think
Baby yeah yeah
What do you care
Bout’ what other people think
