You Could Do Anything Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My dad always told me to be an author
He said I’d get so rich I could buy him a yacht
But is it really easier to pen a bestseller
Than make a living wage if I give this everything I’ve got?
My mom was more patient, she’d just say…
[Chorus]
You could do so many things
You could do anything
What do you want to do?
What do you want to do?
What do you want to do?
[Verse 2]
I always had a knack for numbers
So if it was just money
I would have been an engineer or a CPA
But it’s hard to find the space inside my mind
For those numbers
When I’m writing a song in my head every minute of the day
[Chorus]
You could do so many things
You could do anything
What do you want to do?
What do you want to do?
What do you want to do?
My dad always told me to be an author
He said I’d get so rich I could buy him a yacht
But is it really easier to pen a bestseller
Than make a living wage if I give this everything I’ve got?
My mom was more patient, she’d just say…
[Chorus]
You could do so many things
You could do anything
What do you want to do?
What do you want to do?
What do you want to do?
[Verse 2]
I always had a knack for numbers
So if it was just money
I would have been an engineer or a CPA
But it’s hard to find the space inside my mind
For those numbers
When I’m writing a song in my head every minute of the day
[Chorus]
You could do so many things
You could do anything
What do you want to do?
What do you want to do?
What do you want to do?
[Bridge]
Everybody’s always getting at
Some different way that I should be
But I’m not here to please anyone
I’m only here for me
And the more this life disappoints
The more certainty that I seem to find
This is what I want the most, by a catastrophic landslide
[Chorus]
You could do so many things, you could do anything
[Outro]
And this is such a simple thing
Might never lead to anything
But it’s all I ever wanted to do
It's all I ever wanted to do
It's all I ever wanted to do
It's all I ever wanted to do
Everybody’s always getting at
Some different way that I should be
But I’m not here to please anyone
I’m only here for me
And the more this life disappoints
The more certainty that I seem to find
This is what I want the most, by a catastrophic landslide
[Chorus]
You could do so many things, you could do anything
[Outro]
And this is such a simple thing
Might never lead to anything
But it’s all I ever wanted to do
It's all I ever wanted to do
It's all I ever wanted to do
It's all I ever wanted to do
