You've taken your words and you take your judgments
And stick 'em 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, yeah, yeah

Ooh, we got nothing to lose
You better run and hide, yeah, you crossed the line
I got a knife behind my back, just sayin'
Ooh, we got nothing to prove
Your social guides give you swollen eyes
But what I got can't be bought, so you can just

Chorus:
Call it what you want, eh, eh, eh
Call it what you want, eh, eh, eh
I said, just call it what you want, eh, eh, eh
Call it what you want
Want, want, want, want

What you want, want, want
Call it what you want, want, want
You can call it what you want
What you want, want, want
Call it what you, call it what you want
What you want, want, want
You can call it, you can call it what you want

Eh, eh, eh, call it what you want
Eh, eh, eh
I said, just call it what you want, eh, eh, eh
Call it what you want
