Snooty Twits Havin' Fits

Is it MAD! that a pair of brothers with a collective age of over 150 are continuing to make perfect more than half a century after they first had those creative Sparks?

Probably not. Do Things My Own Way is another wonderfully repetitious single with a wilfully wonky video. 

No Maels or baby grands were harmed in the making of this short film.

Sparks are playing two dates each in London and Manchester, with a fifth and final show in Scotland. Tickets on sale Friday 7th.

Sparks' 28th album MAD! will follow in 2025. Hail or Mael? You choose.

 

Gotta run, gotta fly
Gonna do things my own way
Fall behind, bye bye bye
Gonna do things my own way
Feelin' right, feelin’ tight
Gonna do things my own way
Got the fuel, broke the rules
Gonna do things my own way

Snooty twits havin' fits
Gonna do things my own way
They wanna lunch, don't wanna lunch
Gonna do things my own way
Lookin’ good, understood
Gonna do things my own way
Out the way, out the way
Gonna do things my own way

Feelin' cool, seelin' schooled
Gonna do things my own way
I'm Howard Hughes in Jordan 2's
Gonna do things my own way

Do things my own way
Do things my own way
Do things my own way
Do things my own way

Not a phase, all my days
Gonna do things my own way
Not a fad, is that so bad?
Gonna do things my own way
Unabashed, totin' cash
Gonna do things my own way
Unaligned, simply fine
Gonna do things my own way

Do things, gotta run
Do things, gotta go
Do things, gotta stay
Do things, gotta play
Do things, gotta run
Do things, gotta go
Do things, gotta stay
Do things, gotta play

Saw the Pope, told him, 'nope'
Gonna do things my own way
My guru told him too
Gonna do things my own way
My advice? No advice
Gonna do things my own way
Roll the dice, roll the dice
Gonna do things my own way

 

Anywhere, anytime
Gonna do things my own way
I don’t care, I don’t care
Gonna do things my own way

Gonna do things my own way
Gonna do things my own way
Gonna do things my own way
Gonna do things my own way
