Don't Lose Your Head - INXS

Shot your mouth off like a kid

Who’s scared to have a heart

You’re loosing grip of what really matters

Cause you don’t know where to start

You wake up in the morning

With a starfuck for a friend

The things you do are so in tune

With what you said you hate

What’s giving you the will to live

Is looking for revenge

The only laugh that you’ve got left

Is hiding from the pain

What must have happened to your soul

Is skinnin' you alive

The thing that you fear the most is love

And that’s buried deep inside

So deep inside

Don’t lose your head

Cause I can’t do the time

Don’t lose your head

If you can’t pay the price

The heart you’re building out of rock

Is turning into sand

Cause you never took the time to think

What it means to be a man

You act like you got the answers

When the questions never asked

I’ve been to where you’re coming from

But the postcards weren’t so bad

The knife I carry’s been sharpened

On the mouth’s that won’t keep shut

I’ll stab at you in the darkness

Cause I’m trying to shed some light

Your point of view’s so meaningless

If you ever had one at all

All you seem to care about

Is who’s is gonna take the fall

Don’t lose your head

Now I can’t do the time for ya

Don’t lose your head

Can you pay the price

Don’t lose your head

Cause I can’t do the time

Don’t lose your head

But can you pay the price

Don’t lose your head

You can’t do the time

Don’t lose your head

You can’t you pay the price

Don’t lose your head

You can’t do the time

Don’t lose your head

I can’t do the time
