Lyrics

Autonomy (Demo)

[Verse 1: Steve Diggle & Pete Shelley]

Thing that's worth having, yes I would

Buys you your life, sir, if it could

[Hook 1: Pete Shelley & Steve Diggle]

I, I want you, autonomy

[Verse 2: Steve Diggle & Pete Shelley]

It leaves us all wondering, and it should

He's up to something for the good

[Hook 2: Pete Shelley & Steve Diggle]

I, I want you, autonomy

And I, I want you, autonomy

[Verse 3: Steve Diggle & Pete Shelley]

It leaves us all wondering, and it should

He's up to something for the good

[Hook 3: Pete Shelley & Steve Diggle]

I, I want you, autonomy

Yes, I, I want you, autonomy
