You might put your love and trust on the line It's risky, people love to tear that down, let 'em try Do it anyway Risk it anyway And if you're paralyzed by a voice in your head It's the standing still that should be scaring you instead Go on and do it anyway Do it anyway There will be times you might leap before you look There'll be times you'll like the cover And that's precisely why you'll love the book Do it anyway, do it anyway Tell me what I said I'd never do Tell me what I said I'd never say Read me off a list of the things I used to not like, but now I think are okay Sometimes it's not subjective: wrong and right Deep down you know it's downright wrong but you're invincible tonight It's done, you did it Despite your grand attempts the chips are set to fall And all the stories you might weave cannot negotiate them all Be honest, anyway. So tell me what I said I'd never do. Tell me what I said I'd never say. Read me off that list of the things that I used to not likebut now I think are okay It's gonna be so very hard to say And watch the trust and joy all drain from her innocent face But you must do it anyway It sucks, but do it anyway Call it surrender but you know that that's a joke And the punchline is you were actually never in control Surrender anyway. Tell me what you said you'd never do Tell me what you said you'd never say Read me off that list of things cause I used to not like you Now I think you're okay Everybody knows that you just gotta do it anyway Do it anyway (x8) Cause you don't do nothing (Do it anyway) To avoid self punishment (Do it anyway) You won't do nothing (Do it anyway) You won't feel nothing (Do it anyway) Gotta do it (Do it anyway) Do it, do it anyway (Do it anyway) Ah (Do it anyway) Do it anyway!
