The Things Lyrics by Jordan Bratton

Driver’s Ed

2017

(Verse 1)
I seen James Bond drinking
So I had to do it to
I seen him smoke
So I had to do that too

I threw those herbs in the water
Back at it on the next day
I wanted to fly so bad but
I couldn't find another way

(Chorus)

Oh the things that I do
Don't know why I do
I thought I was doing it for you
You

Oh the things that I do
Don't know why I do
I thought I was doing them for you
You

(Verse 2)

Michael jackson moonwalked
So I had to do it to
But my dad said lead so I had to follow suit
Broken glass on the pavement
I picked the bottle up the next day
I always thought being sober
Couldn't take away the pain

(Chorus)

Oh the things that I do
Don't know why I do
Thought I was doing them for you
You

Oh the things that I do
Don't know why I do
I thought I was doing them for you
You

(Outro)

Oh the things that I do
Don't know why I do
Oh these things that I do yeah
Oh the things that I do
Don't know why I do
Thought I was doing it
Thought I was doing them for you

Yeah

Thought I was doing them for you
