Damit überholt die Realität die Satire. Vor wenigen Tagen hat erst das Satiremagazin Postillon getitelt, dass die AfD die Abschiebung fordern würde.

M.C. Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" is an iconic hip-hop track that revolutionised the genre in the early 1990s. With its infectious beat and memorable hook, it became a cultural phenomenon, showcasing Hammer's unique style and dance moves. The song's success solidified Hammer's place in music history and continues to influence artists today.
Lyrics: You can't touch this You can't touch this You can't touch this You can't touch this
My, my, my, my (You can't touch this) Music hits me so hard Makes me say "Oh, my Lord Thank you for blessing me With a mind to rhyme and two hyped feet"
It feels good when you know you're down A super dope homeboy from the Oaktown And I'm known as such And this is a beat, uh, you can't touch
I told you, homeboy You can't touch this Yeah, that's how we livin', and ya know You can't touch this
Look in my eyes, man You can't touch this Yo, let me bust the funky Iyrics You can't touch this
Fresh new kicks and pants You got it like that Now you know you wanna dance So, move outta your seat And get a fly girl And catch this beat While it's rolling
Hold on Pump a little bit and let 'em know it's going on Like that, like that Cold on a mission, so fall on back Let 'em know that you're too much And this is a beat, uh, they can't touch
Yo, I told you You can't touch this Why you standing there, man? You can't touch this Yo, sound the bell, school's in, sucker You can't touch this
Give me a song or rhythm Making them sweat, that's what I'm giving them Now, they know You talk about the Hammer When you're talkin 'bout a show That's hyped and tight Singers are sweatin' So pass them a wipe or a tape To learn What it's gonna take in the 90's to burn The chart's legit Either work hard or you might as well quit
That's word, because, you know You can't touch this You can't touch this Break it down!
Stop, Hammer time!
"Go with the flow", it is said If you can't groove to this, then you probably are dead So, wave your hands in the air Bust a few moves Run your fingers through your hair
This is it, for a winner Dance to this and you're gonna get thinner Now move, slide your rump Just for a minute, let's all do the bump (Bump, bump, bump)
Yeah You can't touch this Look, man You can't touch this
You'll probably get hyped, boy, 'cause you know you can't You can't touch this Ring the bell, school's back in Break it down!
Stop, Hammer time!
You can't touch this You can't touch this You can't touch this Break it down!
Stop, Hammer time!
Every time you see me That Hammer's just so hype I'm dope on the floor And I'm magic on the mic
Now, why would I ever Stop doing this With others making records That just don't hit?
I toured around the world From London to The Bay It's "Hammer! Go, Hammer! MC Hammer! Yo, Hammer!" And the rest can go and play "U Can't Touch This"
You can't touch this You can't touch this Yeah You can't touch this

Condamnez-vous les événements du #7octobre ? La Chine répond «non»
"La plupart des gens ne réalisent pas que sur les 195 pays que compte le monde, seuls 13 désignent officiellement le #Hamas comme une "organisation terroriste". Beaucoup pensent que le qualificatif de terroriste est appliqué universellement et que le reste de l’humanité voit le monde à travers le même prisme déformé que les Américains. Or, ce n’est pas le cas. Ils considèrent le Hamas comme un mouvement de libération nationale dûment élu pour gouverner #Gaza en 2006, à la suite d’élections «libres et équitables» imposées aux Palestiniens par l’administration #Bush. Aujourd’hui, le Hamas sert de prétexte pour massacrer des femmes et des enfants à Gaza à grande échelle. La plupart des dirigeants occidentaux ont exprimé leur soutien au bain de sang perpétré par #Israël depuis 18 mois, tandis que la #Chine s’y est non seulement opposée, mais a également défendu le droit des Palestiniens à la lutte armée."

idk what happened but my cars rear windshield wiper went missing and its the whole thing including what the replacement blade fits on so i cant replace it with just the part they sell at the auto shop here
dont wanna go out but i found this video of a guy changing his on the same car, the thing he's holding i can find at the auto shop but not the things it slides into (circled in red)
if that hinge is broken then i would just order the entire wiper used, and replace the blade if needed. or visit a scrap yard and maybe you'll find one. you can call ahead and ask if they have VWs with wipers that match that model. sometimes they are common between multiple models
yea its basically gonna be a pain in the ass. i'll get a car guy to help me. i wonder how it happened though, my theory is drunk people did it but just guessing
yea probably hoodlums broke it off. basically just spray a bit of WD40, let it soak in, undo that one bolt and attach the new one. usually there is a shaft with splines. not really difficult but sometimes they are a bit stuck on the shaft
ah yea that's a part that's part of the vehicle not just the wiper blade so you'd need to order one of those from either a VW dealer or something like ebay for a used one. you could search for rear wiper arm or look up the exact name of the part in a diagram in the service manual (you can generally find service manual PDFs online)

La source souligne que si Poutine conclut qu’une paix négociée selon les conditions citées ci-dessus n’est pas réalisable, il est prêt à recourir à l’escalade militaire pour forcer l’Ukraine et l’ #Europe à reconnaître que l’alternative sera pire. La source ajoute que Poutine estime que la Russie est capable de soutenir un conflit à long terme, même sous de lourdes sanctions. Et aussi que "Si une ouverture tactique se présentait, Poutine s’enfoncerait plus profondément en Ukraine." => Un deuxième initié note que Poutine est de moins en moins enclin à faire des compromis sur les questions territoriales et est déterminé à obtenir le contrôle total de quatre régions ukrainiennes.

2025 marks a landmark year for Europe’s ‘bridge between Earth and space’. The European Space Agency’s Estrack satellite tracking network turns 50.
Since its inception in 1975, Estrack – ESA’s global network of ground stations – has formed the vital communication bridge between satellites in orbit and mission control at the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC) in Darmstadt, Germany.
Now comprising six stations spanning six countries, Estrack has grown into a strategic asset for Europe, enabling communication with spacecraft, transmitting commands and receiving scientific data.
The network keeps an eye on satellites no matter their location: tracking them across Earth orbit, voyaging to comets or asteroids, keeping station at the scientifically important Sun-Earth Lagrange points, and deep into our Solar System. It even keeps tabs on European launchers as they soar into orbit, ensuring no rocket is ever out of reach.
Fittingly, this celebration of technological excellence coincides with the 200th birthday of Johann Strauss II and the 50th anniversary of ESA. To honour this convergence of milestones, ESA and the Vienna Tourist Board are orchestrating a unique mission: broadcasting The Blue Danube Waltz to its destined home among the stars.
Don’t miss the live concert of the Wiener Symphoniker (Vienna Symphony Orchestra) on Saturday, 31 May. The event will start at 20:30 CEST and the transmission from ESA’s Cebreros antenna will occur at 21:30 CEST.

the Labour government continues to push the UK towards decarbonisation by 2030, households and businesses will have to change their habits and reduce their energy usage to prevent overwhelming the grid when 'unreliables' cannot cope with demand.
The industry term for this is ‘demand side’ response. It involves nudging households and organisations to spread their use of power across the day, so avoiding those spells when demand is high. In other words, it amounts to energy rationing.
they have pushed 'smart meters' for a reason
This is even more outrageous when you consider the fact that none of it is necessary. There are plenty of alternatives to Net Zero rationing – the rapid construction of Small Modular Reactors, for example, would be an infinitely preferable alternative to renewables. spiked-online.com/2025/05/27/a…

With its infectious beat and clever lyrics, the track showcases the group's unique blend of rap and rock, making it a timeless classic that continues to resonate with fans today.
Lyrics: No sleep 'til
Brooklyn
Foot on the pedal, never ever false metal Engine running hotter than a boiling kettle My job ain't a job, it's a damn good time City to city, I'm running my rhymes
On location, touring around the nation Beastie Boys always on vacation Itchy trigger finger but a stable turntable I do what I do best because I'm willing and able
Ain't no faking, your money I'm taking Going coast to coast to watch all the girlies shaking While you're at the job working nine to five The Beastie Boys at the Garden, cold kickin' it live
No sleep 'til
Another plane, another train Another bottle in the brain Another girl, another fight Another drive all night
Our manager's crazy, he always smokes dust He's got his own room at the back of the bus Tour around the world, you rock around the clock Plane to hotel, girls on the jock
Trashing hotels like it's going out of style Getting paid along the way 'cause it's worth your while Four on the floor, Ad Rock's out the door MCA's in the back because he's skeezin' with a whore We got a safe in the trunk with money in a stack With dice in the front and Brooklyn's in the back White boys got more rhymes
No sleep 'til No sleep 'til Brooklyn No sleep 'til Brooklyn
Ain't seen the light since we started this band MCA get on the mike, my man Born and bred in Brooklyn, the U.S.A They call me Adam Yauch but I'm MCA Like a lemon to a lime, a lime to a lemon I sip the def ale with all the fly women
Limos, arenas, and TV shows Autograph pictures and classy hoes Step off, Homes, get out of my way Taxing little girlies from here to L.A Waking up before I get to sleep 'Cause I'll be rockin' this party eight days a week
No sleep 'til No sleep 'til Brooklyn No sleep 'til Brooklyn No sleep 'til Brooklyn (Brooklyn) No sleep 'til Brooklyn, yeah
No sleep 'til Brooklyn (Brooklyn) No sleep 'til Brooklyn (Brooklyn) No sleep 'til Brooklyn (Brooklyn) No sleep 'til Brooklyn (Brooklyn) No sleep 'til Brooklyn (Brooklyn) Never sleep 'til Brooklyn (Brooklyn)

Lyrics: Lately I've been stuck imagining What I wanna do and what I really think Time to blow out Be a little inappropriate 'Cause I know that everybody's thinking it When the light's out
Shame on me To need release Uncontrollably
I-I-I wanna go-o-o all the wa-a-ay Taking out my freak tonight I-I-I wanna sho-o-ow all the di-i-irt I got running through my mind Woah-oh-oh
I-I-I wanna go-o-o all the wa-a-ay Taking out my freak tonight I-I-I wanna sho-o-ow all the di-i-irt I got running through my mind Woah-oh-oh
Lately people got me all tied up There's a countdown waiting for me to erupt Time to blow out I've been told just what to do with it To keep both my hands above the bla-blanket When the light's out
Shame on me To need release Uncontrollably
I-I-I wanna go-o-o all the wa-a-ay Taking out my freak tonight I-I-I wanna sho-o-ow all the di-i-irt I got running through my mind Woah-oh-oh
I-I-I wanna go-o-o all the wa-a-ay Taking out my freak tonight I-I-I wanna sho-o-ow all the di-i-irt I got running through my mind Woah-oh-oh
Shame on me (shame on me) To need release (to need release) Uncontrollably (uncontrollably, -lably, -lably, -lably)
I-I-I wanna go-o-o all the wa-a-ay Taking out my freak tonight I-I-I wanna sho-o-ow all the di-i-irt I got running through my mind

Lyrics: Hey, over there, please forgive me If I'm coming on too strong Hate to stare but you're winning And they're playing my favorite song
So come here, a little closer Wanna whisper in your ear Make it clear, little question Wanna know just how you feel
If I said my heart was beating loud If we could escape the crowd somehow If I said I want your body now Would you hold it against me?
'Cause you feel like paradise And I need a vacation tonight So, if I said I want your body now Would you hold it against me?
Hey, you might think, that I'm crazy But you know I'm just your type I might be, a little hazy But you just cannot deny
There's a spark, in-between us When we're dancing on the floor I want more, wanna see it So, I'm asking you tonight
If I said my heart was beating loud If we could escape the crowd somehow If I said I want your body now Would you hold it against me?
'Cause you feel like paradise And I need a vacation tonight So, if I said I want your body now Would you hold it against me?
If I said I want your body Would you hold it against me?
Give me something good Don't wanna wait, I want it now Pop it like a hood And show me how you work it out
Alright
If I said my heart was beating loud If I said I want your body now Would you hold it against me?
If I said my heart was beating loud If we could escape the crowd somehow If I said I want your body now Would you hold it against me?
'Cause you feel like paradise And I need a vacation tonight So, if I said I want your body now Would you hold it against me?

I can't take it, take it, take no more Never felt like, felt like this before Come on, get me, get me on the floor DJ, what you, what you waitin' for?

I can't take it, take it, take no more Never felt like, felt like this before Come on, get me, get me on the floor DJ, what you, what you waitin' for?
See the sunlight, we ain't stopping Keep on dancin' 'til the world ends If you feel it, let it happen Keep on dancin' 'til the world ends
Keep on da-da dancin' 'til the world ends (World ends, world ends, world ends, world ends, world ends) Keep on dancin' 'til the world ends (World ends, world ends, wo-world ends, the world ends)

AI Europe and the rest. I am still very impressed by how Germany and Western Europe intend to achieve this. All parties in the German Bundestag have decided to drastically increase the military budget. A cross-party front for war. If you read non-Western newspapers, the tenor is clear: “Germany is Nazi again.” What can one say? Yes, it's true.
Apart from this depressing realization, what is particularly striking is how far Germany and the EU are falling behind technologically. It is more than disconcerting. There seems to be a complete failure to recognize what is happening. I'm not even sure if the US has figured that out. Artificial intelligence, neural networks, LLMs—that's not ChatGPT, which you can use to ask funny questions on your Apple phone. Calling it “intelligence” was a clever move from the start. It makes users feel like they are intelligent themselves. But AI is just as intelligent as a fountain pen. Karl Marx's fountain pen didn't write “Das Kapital.” The intelligent ones are those who use it as a tool.
I only see two groups that are really using it wisely. One is China, and the other is the digital underground, especially on its dark fringes. China has taken a revolutionary step, one that cannot be overestimated. China has made its fully weighted, highly complex AI models OPEN SOURCE under a MIT license. This is not only a gift to the world and to humanity. It is also an incredible boost to innovation, especially for China itself.
In China, LLMs, Deepseeks, and ChatGPTs play a lesser role. Instead, neural networks are used to control processes in industry, logistics, and society in general. The West likes to believe that everything in China is centrally controlled, that it is all autocracy and dictatorship. But the most powerful technology of our time is completely unregulated and freely available to the people. Thousands of companies and hundreds of communities are using it and in turn making their developments available to the general public.
The latest is Model Context Protocol (MCP), which makes it possible to control any third-party programs, even highly complex ones such as Gimp, CAD, or Blender. In addition to China (and through China), it is the digital underground that is extremely dynamic in providing the appropriate FOSS tools for AI control. ... nice digital infrastructure you have there. A little old-fashioned but nice....
Nach wie vor bin ich super beeindruckt, wie Deutschland und Westeuropa das wohl schaffen wollen. Alle Parteien, die im deutschen Bundestag sind, haben entschieden, das Militärbudget drastisch zu erhöhen. Eine Querfront des Krieges.
I agree that AI is not intelligent, it is simply a marketting tool. I have Deepseek running on a Nvidia Xavia and play with it but it is not intelligent and I achieve far more with my Raspberry Pis. I like it and it does have a future but it is not intelligence. The other lie at the moment is Quantum Computing which does not achieve quantum theory. It is fast and has a future but it is not "Quantum" computing, that is just marketting. If they just called it very fast that would not sell as well. The real change that most people do not understand is the move toward error. With AI you have to accept that it makes a lot of errors. With Quantum computing the acceptable error is over 10%. With basic computing error is not accepted. I do accept that all computers make errors but in the past it was seen as wrong but now we are working with probability rather than fact so we have to accept error. A lot of the early work with Quantum computing had 30% error and that was seen as good because of the speed. A lot will change but there are dangers. Rather than throw Durov in prison until he gives a back door into Telegram Quantum computing will simply crack the encryption in real time but with high levels of error. You get the terrorists message but you do not know if it is what he wrote.
I found the political move by China recently very amusing. The US were shouting about how the future was in AI and how much money the US was going to make. They have always said how China cannot work out anything technological on their own unless they steal it. Then Trump starting his tariff fiasco and the Chinese released Deepseek as open source, free to put on your own computer. OK, like all the others it is based on Ollama but it was a real kick in the teeth being free. Then they released their micro computer based on RiskV which is more powerful than any Raspberry Pi and is on the market at $30. Then without a break to get their breath they released their working Quantum computer before Google have even got their's going. I think they proved the concept regarding their abilities wrong. China has always been happy for the US to see themselves as better as long as China is making a profit.
I also find it fascinating how cleverly China is acting right now, and if the US and the EU don't show some respect soon, things could change quickly. At first, I thought AI was just marketing, but now I'm pretty sure it will rapidly change social structures in ultra-modern societies. China has projects for a city without civil servants and genuine production based on demand instead of pointless overproduction. Old Europe will be driving ox carts.
Well, yes, I agree that China is and will gradually take over the dominance. And it's amusing to me to see the supporters of US dominance get annoyed by this. But it's just gang warfare I'm afraid, or perhaps from the perspective of the transnational globalists, changing one old horse for a new one. From the perspective of the people (or even anarchists), I don't see much improvement in life for the people from this - I think it will just spill over into the hands of the new power gang. I have a few friends from China who were born there, and from knowing them and through them the environment there, I hope that under the would-be communist star there is just state-run corporate capitalism and fierce interpersonal competition, even if those people are mentally more in the mode of collectivism (what's good for the state is good for me). But we'll see... And thanks for your interesting posts, they have been beneficial to me
@Enepe Kelas I am occasionally accused of being pro-China or pro-Russia. I believe we have already discussed this topic. I would not want to switch, and I do not see anything positive there, but one must look at the situation objectively. Just saying, as is often done in the “West,” that they are all controlled slaves there is useless for analyzing the situation properly. What needs to be said clearly is that AI technology from China is currently open source, and that gives us the opportunity to build independent, anarchistic AI structures. I hope that will be done. I'm in.
@Reverend Elvis I am often accused of being pro China and pro Russia because I am. That does not in any way mean that I would want to live there or that I see them as mini utopias but I can see the benefits and why their people are proud to be from there. In Russia they have a better standard of living yet we set the exchange rate which makes them look poor but when I talk to people in Moscow they have frequent foreign holidays and lots of disposable income. Yes, a MacBook Air costs an arm and a leg but that is because of how we treat them, not because of how their government treat them. Their state spies on them far less than ours does on us and they are safe. That is why many people from the west are moving there. Their economy is rising rapidly whilst ours is declining. I think it wise to visit before deciding 😀 Their tube system is like an art gallery. My son lived in China for 3 years while I was living in Asia so I visited him a lot and even got married in Hong Kong. China is very similar and nothing like the western propaganda tells you. The people have more freedom than us and the country is very safe. I was shocked to see women going to the market late at night in their pyjama's to get some late night snacks but that is because they feel safe, it is not something a woman could risk doing here. The Chinese also expect a foreign holiday each year which is an expectation of the past in my country.
Well the Ukraine girls really knock me out They leave the West behind And Moscow girls make me sing and shout That Georgia's always on my my my my my my my mind
to zemran@iviv.hu and reverendelvis@spora.undeadnetwork.de I guess everyone has a slightly different experience. Maybe the open soce software is fine and it’s a bit of sand in the gears of western overpriced software. But that’s just at the level of computers, not at the level of real society.
If we were a bit sceptic (as I am 😀 we would say that the three power blocs don’t clash in the one that is the most free, but in the one that is the most slow in taking away people’s freedom (and that itself has different categories like freedom of privacy, freedom of speech, freedom of economics or freedom in the sense of some equality - if the state isn’t just a watchdog of its people for the benefit of big corporations and capitalists) So even as it is, it seems to me that we are then only looking for the “lesser evil” rather than the good. And it’s understandable - when there’s nothing outright good, it’s no wonder people are looking for the lesser evil, in a save who you can style. I just sometimes think that from the point of view of the governments as a whole, it’s actually a good strategy to herd people from one corral to another - first scare them with something really bad on one side so that they’ll gladly accept the lesser evil. The good cop, bad cop method.
And I would like to assess it directly by living in all places. I only have the experiences of people from different places, friends who live there (e.g. China). Or rather limited clues, e.g. through people promoting a certain country unintentionally unmasking it in describing it: And for example with Russia, I noticed an interesting conversation: it was in a media outlet that is openly pro-Russian, and the person is openly pro-Russian (I’ve known him for a long time), and the purpose of the discussion was to describe Russia to the West in the best possible way. The person was describing those aesthetic clichés like clean streets, full shops, beautiful subways…and then he went on to describe how the digitalization of life there is very advanced, everything even small financial transactions are done over the phone, everywhere is safe thanks to cameras, etc. (he was simply describing a crypto-anarchist’s nightmare painted in the most pink colors) Oh, and he put the icing on the cake by describing how two boys each got two years in jail for lighting a cigarette by the sacred fire burning in memory of their victory in WW2. And he obviously took it as good and necessary for some order and respect in society 😀 Of course, comparably stupid punishments happen in the so-called free West, again in the category of its censorship and punishment. But simply this one I have the impression that one will be able to choose only the sub-parameters of which dictatorship suits one better, but will not have the choice between a dictatorship and the free world 😀 I guess so much for my skepticism, my friends 😀
@Enepe Kelas I have a good friend who lives in Moscow who tells me how good his life is there and he believes what he is saying. Just as your friend has a valid opinion. In my country a man was sent to prison for shouting at a police dog that was barking at him. 7 times as many people are sent to prison in the UK for what they write online compared to Russia. I was talking to Alexie about how we can pay for the tube with our phones and he said he simply looks at the screen. His view is honest and valid. It is certainly not worth the hatred and war. Russia really does have beautiful cities etc. and there people are far better at justifying their loyalty to it but there are also those who oppose and some of my Russian friends do not live in Russia although when they do return they are not as badly treated as the media would have you believe. I have one friend who was an artillery officer and ran away at the start of the war but eventually ran out of money (life is more expensive in the west) and returned. He was interviewed but not punished in any way. He was allowed to get a job in the private sector and get on with his life. Desert the army in my country and you are more likely to go to prison. One of my Russian friends in Germany had a much harder time because he went to a Navalny rally. I have reached a point where it is all 6 of one and half a dozen of another. I really do not see a big difference. I am happy here and I have friends who are happy there. Great. We bomb far more countries but scream and shout when Russia does the same (far less often). I do think they have done wrong but I can also see that so have we. We can argue the nuts and bolts and try and score logic points but it is still 6 of one and half a dozen of another. We should be talking more with each other. I do not see them as free politically but I do not see us as free politically. In Russia people are pro or anti Putin, in the US people are pro or anti Trump, in the UK people are pro or anti Starmer.

She's gonna pack her bags, she's gonna find her way She's gonna get right out of this She don't want New York, she don't want L.A She's gonna find that special kiss She don't want no sleep, she don't want no high Oh, like peaches and cream She's gonna wish on stars and touch the sky Ah, you know what I mean?
She wants the good life, no need to rewind She needs to really, really find what she wants She lands on both feet, won't take a back seat There's a brave new girl, and she's coming out tonight
She's gonna step outside, uncover her eyes Who knew she could feel so alive? Her M.O.'s changed She don't wanna behave Ain't it good to be a brave girl tonight?
Tonight, it's alright A brave girl tonight
So she met this man, he was kind of rough? He said, "Girl, whatcha looking for? She said, "I don't know, I go with the flow" He said, "Let's get on the floor" He said, "You look real cute with your low ride jeans and your pink little baby tee" "Let's get a room, girl, come and ride with me"
She wants the good life, no need to rewind She needs to really, really find what she wants She lands on both feet, won't take a back seat There's a brave new girl and she's comin' out tonight
She's gonna step outside, uncover her eyes Who knew she could feel so alive? Her M.O.'s changed She don't wanna behave Ain't it good to be a brave girl tonight?
Tonight, it's alright A brave girl tonight Tonight, it's alright A brave girl tonight
I just keep on running I just keep on running Who knew she could feel so alive? (Shining star)
She's gonna step outside, uncover her eyes Who knew she could feel so alive? Her M.O.'s changed She don't wanna behave Ain't it good to be a brave girl tonight?
Tonight, it's alright A brave girl tonight Tonight, it's alright A brave girl tonight A brave girl tonight A brave girl tonight

Every time I try to fly I fall Without my wings I feel so small I guess I need you, baby And every time I see you in my dreams I see your face It's haunting me I guess I need you, baby
I make-believe That you are here It's the only way I see clear What have I done? You seem to move uneasy
And every time I try to fly I fall Without my wings I feel so small I guess I need you, baby And every time I see you in my dreams I see your face You're haunting me I guess I need you, baby
I may have made it rain Please, forgive me My weakness caused you pain And this song's my sorry
At night I pray That soon your face will fade away
And every time I try to fly I fall Without my wings I feel so small I guess I need you, baby And every time I see you in my dreams I see your face You're haunting me I guess I need you, baby

Lyrics: I need time (time), love, joy (joy) I need space, love I need me (action!)
Say hello to the girl that I am You're gonna have to see through my perspective I need to make mistakes just to learn who I am And I don't wanna be so damn protected
There must be another way 'Cause I believe in taking chances But who am I to say, what a girl is to do? God, I need some answers
What am I to do with my life? (You will find it out, don't worry) How am I supposed to know what's right? (You just gotta do it your way) I can't help the way I feel But my life has been so overprotected
I'll tell 'em what I like, what I want, and what I don't But every time I do, I stand corrected Things that I've been told, I can't believe what I hear about the world I realize I'm overprotected
There must be another way 'Cause I believe in taking chances But who am I to say, what a girl is to do? God, I need some answers
What am I to do with my life? (You will find it out, don't worry) How am I supposed to know what's right? (You just gotta do it your way) I can't help the way I feel (help the way I feel) But my life has been so overprotected
I need time, love I need space (This is it)
I don't need nobody telling me just what I wanna What I, what, what, what I'm gonna (I need) do about my destiny I say no, no, nobody's telling me just what I wanna do, do I'm so fed up with people telling me to be someone else but me (action!)
(Yeah) what am I to do with my life? (You will find it out, don't worry) How am I supposed to know what's right? (You just gotta do it your way) I can't help the way I feel (feel) But my life has been so overprotected
I don't need nobody telling me just what I wanna What I, what, what, what I'm gonna do about my destiny I say no, no, nobody's telling me just what I wanna do, do I'm so fed up with people telling me to be someone else but me
What am I to do with my life? (You will find it out, don't worry) How am I supposed to know what's right? (You just gotta do it your way) I can't help the way I feel (oh, I can't help the way I feel) But my life has been so overprotected
