MR. INDEPENDENT (From “American Song Contest”)
Mr. Independent
No, I can't stop myself from listening to no one
I am on my own now, I'm all I got
Guess I'm the only one
Take a shot, hell, why not?
I can't read the label with the lights turned off
Every word is smoke blowing in my face, oh, oh
Radio, vertigo
Money don't buy my attention, no
Can't cash an empty promise at my bank
Look, I know I come off sweet, but don't test me
If I ever need permission, I'll let me
And if I gotta be forgiven, God, help me
I'll use that tone, yeah, I am grown
'Cause I'm Mr. Independent
No, I can't stop myself from listening to no one
I am on my own now, I'm all I got
Guess I'm the only one
Mr. Independent
No, I can't leave my door wide open for no one
Big man in the black suit can't tell me no
Guess I'm the only one
At the door, waiting for
A valet with my ride 'cause I can't take no more
Ain't no pen to paper, lawyer says I'm saved
No applause, my only thought
("How do you walk around here and say that this is your job?")
Maybe listen to a song before you say it's all the same
Look, I know I come off sweet, but don't test me
I can hit it right back at you, don't tempt me
And if I gotta be forgiven, God, help me
I'll use that tone, yeah, I am grown
'Cause I'm Mr. Independent
No, I can't stop myself from listening to no one
I am on my own now, I'm all I got
Guess I'm the only one
Mr. Independent
No, I can't leave my door wide open for no one
Big man in the black suit can't tell me no
Guess I'm the only one
Mr. Independent, Mr. Independent
Mr. Independent, no
Mr. Independent, Mr. Independent
Mr. Independent, no
Mr. Independent
No, I can't stop myself from listening to no one
I am on my own now, I'm all I got
Guess I'm the only one (oh-oh)
Mr. Independent
No, I can't leave my door wide open for no one
Big man in the black suit can't tell me no
Guess I'm the only one (oh-oh)
Mr. Independent (ah), Mr. Independent (ah)

No, I can't stop myself from listening to no one
