Lyrics

Don't Do It (Just let it go)
Words and Music by John Masarone

Don't do it, don't you do it, just let it go
Don't do it, get through it, just let it go

When the feeling comes it can overrun
with everything that you have

Like a fast attack it will drive you back
with everything that it has

It go it goes on and on, and on and on, and on and on
Don't do it, just don't do it, just let it go

It's in your head don't let it
you're on a thread don't fret it

Don't do it, don't you do it, just let it

It will consume you, it will entomb you
if you don't get it just right

Not automatic it makes you panic
no use in sleeping at night

It go it goes on and on, and on and on, and on and on
Don't do it, just don't do it, just let it go

It's in your head don't let it
you're on a thread just forget it

Don't do it, get through it, and just let it go

Just when you think it's right
you start all over it takes all night
Simple things you can't let go
they complicate you so

Well it's a no-go you rather take it slow
if the lanes are too small

Full elevator you'll take it later
or maybe never at all

It go it goes on and on, and on and on, and on and on
Don't do it, or you will loose it, just let it go

It's in your head don't let it
you're on a thread don't fret it

Don't do it, get through it, and just let it go

Just when you think it's right
you start all over it takes all night
Simple things you can't let go
they complicate you so

Don't do it, don't you do it, just let it go
Don't do it, get through it, just let it go

It go it goes on and on, and on and on, and on and on
Don't do it, just don't do it, just let it go

It's in your head don't let it
you're on a thread don't fret it

Don't do it, get through it, and just let it go

It's in your head don't let it
you're on a thread just forget it

Don't do it, get through it, and just let it go

Very catchy and well recorded track with lots of reference to the Beatles all the way through. Loved the overall recording and the playing is tight and the singer voice is perfect for the song. Interesting that while a very retro sounding track it has very much its own mark as a song. I could hear it on the radio while driving and be singing along and tapping the wheel by the end of the track. Got to pick out the guitar work for a special mention and also the harmonies which were good and sat in the mix perfectly- good song
