You have got your reasons, none of them are mine,
If that's the way you want it, go ahead, that's fine,
I'll just back on out of here,
I won't get in your way,
If, at times, it takes you under, that's just the price you pay.

But don't ask me,
Don't ask me,
Don't ask me how I feel,
Don't ask me,
Don't ask me,
Don't ask me how I feel,
Don't ask me how I feel.

You say you're not like everyone, that God is on your side,
But evil is still evil man, on the left or on the right,
Screwing up the universe while you're policing all the world,
Apocalyptic breakdown has got you in a whirl.

But don't ask me,
Don't ask me,
Don't ask me how I feel, (oh, no, no)
Don't ask me,
Don't ask me,
Don't ask me how I feel,
But don't ask me how I...

I might really tell you,
I could really tell you,
No more Mr. Nice Guy, yeah.

Walking on the wild side,
What can come from that'
The good, the bad, the ugly, babe,
Yeah, we gotta face the facts,
A dirty needle gets you, a million dollar disease,
You're drowning in the snow babe and swinging through the trees.

Please don't ask me,
Don't ask me,
Don't ask me how I feel.

Jesus coming back again,
You don't want to hear about it,
Fine, I'll keep it to myself, but don't you ever doubt it.

But don't ask me,
Don't ask me,
Don't ask me how I feel, (no, no, no)
Don't ask me,
Don't ask me,
Don't ask me how I feel,
Don't ask me how I feel.

Yeah, I might really tell you,
And it makes me wanna scream,
Ain't no more Mr. Nice Guy,
No more in between, babe,
Yeah, I might really tell you,
And it makes me wanna scream,
I'm no more Mr. Nice Guy,
No more in between.

Don't ask me,
Don't ask me,
Don't ask me,
Don't ask me how I feel,
No, don't ask me,
No, don't ask me,
No, don't ask me,
No, don't ask me,
Don't ask me how I feel,
Don't ask me how I feel,
Don't ask me how I feel,
Don't ask me how I feel,
