[Verse 1]
Walk on their side of the street
Don't walk where it feels the best
Walk away from people you meet
Don't talk to strangers
Unless they walk the way you want them to
Don't walk unless the others do
I said walk, like you could use a ride
Don't walk with a confident stride
Then people will walk over you
Don't talk until they tell you to
Don't talk if it's against the rules
Just walk away and be a fool
That's what they want you to do
Yeah, that's what they want you to do
[Refrain]
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la
[Verse 2]
Don't talk if it's against the rules
Just walk away and be a fool
That's what they want you to do
So you got to walk like you wanna make it
Don't walk like you just can't take it
Go on and walk on any side you like
Don't walk wherever they tell you to - psyche!
The sun will shine upon you one day
If you're always walking your way
The sun will shine upon you one day
If you're always walking your way
[Refrain]
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la
[Bridge]
Telling me now, just walking
Said i'm walking on your side of the street
Telling me now, just walking
I'm talking to the people I meet
Telling me now, just walking
Alright
[Outro]
Walk, don't walk
Talk, don't talk
Walk, don't walk
Talk, don't talk
Walk, don't walk
Talk, don't talk
