What You’re Doing Lyrics by Rush

Rush

1974

[Verse 1]
Well, I see you standin' there with your finger in the air
Everything we do, you wanna leave it up to you
Who do you think you are? You think you are a star?
Trying to run the town, always tryin' to put us down

[Refrain]
Well, you think that you're right, you think you're out of sight
Tell me something, mister, why you have to make us so uptight?

[Verse 2]
Well, you say you've been tryin', you know that you're lyin'
I think you need some groovin', who do you think you're foolin', now?
Well, you better start changin', your life needs rearrangin'
You better do some talkin' or you better do some walkin' now

[Refrain]
Yeah, you think that you're right, you think you're out of sight
Tell me something, mister, why you have to make us so uptight?

[Chorus]
I know what you're doing
All that you been doin' wrong
And I don't know what you're feelin'
Oh, but you been feelin' long

[Post-Chorus]
Well, you think that you're right
Tell me something, mister, why you have to make us so uptight?
Oh yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Well, I know what you're doing
All that you been doin' wrong
I don't know what you're feelin'
Oh, but you been feelin' long

[Post-Chorus]
Well, you think that you're right
Oh, tell me something, mister, why you have to put us so uptight?
Yeah, yeah
