Electric Light Orchestra - Chinatown lyrics

One, Two, Three, Four

Everyone tells me I'm close minded

Why don't you listen to this, you might like it

Everyone tells me I'm close minded

You're some hypocrite if you say you don't buy it

Everyone tells me I'm close minded

I'll tell you right now that I'm never gonna try it

Everyone tells me I'm close minded

Give me what I want or there's gonna be a riot

What am I to do

Close-minded

What am I to do

Close-minded

Everyone tells me I'm close minded

Make no mistake, there's no compromise

Everyone tells me I'm close minded

Just try and see it through my eyes

Everyone tells me I'm close minded

I'll tell ya one more time that ya better keep quiet

Everyone tells me I'm close minded

If it's not punk rock, I'm never gonna like it

What am I to do

Close-minded

What am I to do

Close-minded

[Spoken:]

You know, everybodies always saying "You're really close minded. You only listen to one type of music, you only go to one type of show." And I say "Well you know what, this is the type of music we grew up on, this is the type of music we play. Punk rock is our way of life. It's how we chose to live. And everyone elses opinion is worth nothing. Don't worry about what I listen to, worry about your own life. Because I'm not going to change for you or anyone. I can't help it if you don't like it, and it's upto me if I don't want to listen to anything else. It's what's in our blood, it flows through our veins, so save your breath 'coz we're here to stay!!

Everyone tells me I'm close minded

Why don't you listen to this, you might like it

Everyone tells me I'm close minded

You're some hypocrite if ya say you don't buy it

Everyone tells me I'm close minded

I'll tell you right now that I'm never gonna try it

Everyone tells me I'm close minded

Give me what I want or there's gonna be a riot
