about

Written for Vegas diva character, Felice

lyrics

I could say, “Live every day, as if it was your last"
I could say, “Look to the future and let go the past”
I could say “You live, you learn, You choose…”
or “To everything, Turn, Turn, Turn”

I could tell ya “Don’t worry, be happy” or “Don’t stop believing”
Or “Save the world”, “You only get what you’re given”
Or “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger”
or “you gotta be bold, you gotta be tough, you gotta last longer”

But who am I to tell you what is healthy
I eat mainly cookies and cheese
My hobbies are waxing and selfies
And I’ve started to wee when I sneeze, So

Don’t Take My Advice,
Don’t listen to me
I’m not very wise:
You’re smarter than me
Don’t trust a singer,
We don’t really know a thing a-bout your life
So "think twice"
Don’t take my advice

I could say “Enjoy yourself, It’s later than you think”
Or “Always look on the bright side of life”
“Take your passion, and make it happen” cos after all,
“It’s easy if you try”

But I found out I’m banging a minor
I’ll be going to jail for a while.
But I spent fifty thousand on facelifts
So I have no choice but to smile

Don’t Take My Advice,
Don’t listen to me
I’m not very wise:
You’re smarter than me
I won’t sugar-coat it,
I won’t really notice if you live or die
Don’t cry, just
Don’t take my advice

And if you take my advice about taking my advice,
then you’d actually be taking my advice.
So to take my advice, to not take my advice,
You've got to do everything that I say!

Don’t Take My Advice,
Don’t listen to me
I’m not very wise:
You’re smarter than me
Just Cos there’s a keychange, doesn’t make these words more true
Just cos I’m emoting and putting out my arms to you
I beg you
Please – you guys, (Don’t take it, nooo)
It’s all lies (Don’t trust me)
Think twice
Don’t take my advice
No matter how good my hair is
No matter how nice my dress is
Don't take, don't take my advice
