DIY

Don't take, don't take
Don't break my amateur art
Ne te moques pas, te fous pas
Te fous pas, casses pas
Ne plaisantes pas avec mon art.

We're the Blue Peter generation
Brought up on amateur creation
Check our hobbies and collections
Our lower middle class directions.

My work's won kiddie competitions
Filled leisure time with my inventions
Read books that stretched imagination
I loved my break time education.

Don't take, don't take
Don't break my amateur art.

I heart my art.

Don't make, don't make
Don't make a joke of my heart
Ne plaisantes pas avec mon art.

DIY, do or die
(Why don't you sing write paint make?)
DIY, do or die.

DIY oh why
(Why don't you DIY?)
DIY, do, do, do
DIY why not.

I heart my art
Ne plaisantes
Pas avec mon art.

We're the pre-mixed generation
Buy into quicker-fix emotion
Grown up, want only-child attention
Fed up on going through the motions.

Dress up and kill the television
Play names and word association
Paint sounds, electro conversation
Go games and adult education.

Don't take, don't take
Don't break my cut and paste art
I heart my art.

Don't make, don't make
Don't make a joke of my art
Ne plaisantes pas avec mon art.

DIY, do or die
(Why don't you sing, write, paint, make?)
DIY, do or die.

DIY oh why
(Why don't you DIY?)
DIY, do, do, do
DIY, why not.

Don't take, don't take
Don't break my amateur art
I heart my art.

Don't make, don't make
Don't make a joke of my art
Ne plaisantes pas avec mon art.

DIY, do or die
(Why don't you sing, write, paint, make?)
DIY, do or die.

DIY oh why
(Why don't you DIY?)
DIY, do, do, do
DIY, why not.

I heart my art
Ne plaisantes
Pas avec mon art.

DIY.
