You came here with your blueprint your perfect little plan
A tailored suit of "should-dos"for a "better man"
You want me in your pocket a good boy on a string
Wrapped up in your version of a proper sensible thing
You lay it on the table your proposition neat
A safer kind of rhythm for my uninvited feet
You're waiting for an answer for a nod for a sign
That I'll trade in my chaos and finally toe the line
You think you've got me cornered think you've made your case
But there's a mirror on the table and I see my own face
Suit yourself!In your starch and your steel
Suit yourself!Tell me how I should feel
But I'll dress my soul in the thunder and the rain
Sign my name in lightning again and again
So suit yourself darling I'll suit myself
My wardrobe's full of starlight my ties are made of sound
My favorite hat's a melody that I just spun around
These shoes have walked through fire through whispers and through wine
They found their own direction every single time
So keep your neat suggestions your reasonable demands
I've got a jacket made of rock and roll it fits like second hands
You're tapping on the window you're knocking at the door
You've never once considered what my heart is even for
You offer me a safety that I don't even crave
I'm dancing on the edge of the life you couldn't save
Suit yourself!In your quiet and your calm
Suit yourself!With your tranquilizing balm
But I'll breathe the chaos I'll drink the electric sky
Watch me baby watch me fly!
So suit yourself honey I'll suit myself
You say I'm going nowhere
Maybe that's the point my dear
The destination was never the deal
It's the cut of the journey the way that I feel
Suit yourself
Suit yourself
But I'll be standing here
Perfectly clear
Perfectly me
