she was haunted by the dead but friendly ghosts
as her helpers they stayed as her hosts
and the reason why she kept them was her fear for herself
yes, she was dangerous, she might


drink some wine, sing all night, mess up the yard,
steal a man, rape his love, then throw it away
and she became what she tried to avoid, she said

Do now as i say, darling, not as i do.
See the way i play, kid, not do as i do.
do do dodo do do dodo do do not as i do
or you'll feel blue


that which no one knew was that her own love was gone,
stolen from her dead man long ago
their son was treated bad 'cause of her ego and selfish thoughts
she cared less 'bout him than 'bout her own

he was soft, now he's hard,
seemingly strong
all he gets is empty looks,
no confirmation
all he was taught was throught her and keep quiet, see

Do now as i say, darling, not as i do.

See the way i play, kid, not do as i do.
do do dodo do do dodo do do not as i do
or you'll feel blue

it was like a crime she can't undo


now nothing can be done and
it runs in his blood, too

it's not possible to teach a kid by preaching
when you do the opposite

Do now as i say, darling, not as i do.

See the way i play, kid, not do as i do.
do do dodo do do dodo do do not as i do
or you'll feel blue


do not as i do, hanne hukkelberg, little things (2005)
