Foster the People

Call It What You Want

R: Call it what you want, yeah eah

Call it what you want, want

I said just call it what you want, yeah eah

Call it what you want

Am Dm

1. Yeah we're locked up in ideas

Em

We like to label everything

Am

Well I'm just gonna do here what I gotta do here

'Cause I gotta keep myself free

Am

You're ducking and moving just to hide

Dm Em

Your bruises from all your enemies

And I'm in the crossfire dodging bullets

Dm

From your expectancies, yeah

Am Dm Em

X: (Ouhh ouh, we've got nothing to lose)

You better run and hide

Am

Yeah you've crossed the line

Dm

I've got a knife behind my back (just sayin')

Am Dm Em

(Ouhh ouh, we've got nothing to prove )

Your social guides give you swollen eyes

Dm

But what I've got can't be bought so you can just

R: Call it...

2. You've taken your words and you take your judgments

And stick them onto everything

If it don't conform to what you were born into,

Then you run the other way

You say, "now what's your style and who do you listen to?" who cares?

Well that rat race ladder-climbing fake-face smile's got nothing on me

X: Ouhh ouh...

R: Call it...

You can call it what you, call it what you

Yeah eah eah, call it what you want, want

I said just call it what you want, yeah eah

Call it what you want
