Bulletproof lyrics

(Jake Burns)



A lot of people come to me

And talk at my face

Try to tell me all that`s wrong in my life

They give me all of their opinions

And their strongly held convictions

And all of them sure that they`re right

I`ll give the truth, the whole truth

And nothing like the truth

`Cos confession id good for the soul

But bad for the neck

Bad for the neck



Everyone believes they`ve something to reveal

And they`re offering me their advice

This can only help me get my life in line

They never stop to ask themselves why

I need some help, some guidance

Some backing and belief

But really all I need is a rest

And if you really want to help me

Just stay out of my way

I need some time to reflect

Just leave me alone



Chorus:

I`m not bulletproof

I`m not bulletproof

I`m not...



Now I don`t take too kindly to your helpful hints

No matter how heartfelt they`re meant

`Cos it usually means I`ve got some business of my own

That you want to get your nose in

Now that`s a fact, you react

Anyway you like

And it don`t make no difference to me

`Cos I`ve met your kind in every walk of life

And I want you to let me be

Let me be



(Chorus)



B.u double l e.t.p.r. double o f

I`m not

B.u double l e.t.p.r. double o f



So for all you instructors, you advisors

And tormentors I`d like to give a little bit back

See the only way I`ll learn is to make my own mistakes

And that`s an undeniable fact

I`ve got to fall and tumble

Bomb and then collapse

If ever I`m going to get it right

And you must stand and watch me

And never interfere

You got to let me live my own life



(Chorus)
