Advice and Consent

Feelin' the pressure
Comin' down on you
Who you see and where you go
And what you say, what you do

You get so wrapped up you can't make a move
Without first finding out if your friends all approve

With their advice and consent, advice and consent
Their point of view
Advice and consent, advice and consent
Is it important to you?

Well, it can be frightenin'
Breakin' out on your own
You get no fair warnin'
When you go it alone

But do you trust yourself and think know what's best?
Or do you leave it up in the air and follow the rest?

With their advice and consent, advice and consent
Directing you
Advice and consent, advice and consent
It's really up to you

They're tellin' you, they're tellin' me
They've got us thinkin' it's the way it should be
But we must try to find out on our own
Because who really knows you more than you
And me more than me?

It's just advice and consent, advice and consent
It's not always true
Advice and consent, advice and consent
It's up to you

Advice and consent, advice and consent
Their point of view
Advice and consent, advice and consent
It's really up to you

Advice and consent, advice and consent
Advice and consent, advice and consent
