…supposed to do?
[Chorus]
What am I supposed to do, Lord?
What am I supposed to do?
When this is all I have ever know
What am I…
In the end, they had to feed their families too
Them dues I paid, they can't help me now
So what am I supposed to do?
[Chorus]
What am I supposed to do, Lord?
What am…
…I supposed to do?
When this is all I have ever known
What am I supposed to do?
[Verse 5]
I sit by as the city slowly dies…
By A Flock Of Seagulls (1983)
On album Listen (1983)

You're giving me a hard time.
What am I supposed to do with a hard time,
Especially from you?
The way that you smile
Reveals…
…a shadow from the past
When I thought I knew you,
but you lied.
If I see you walking,
If I see you talking,
What am I supposed to do…
…?
What am I supposed to do?
What am I supposed to do?
What am I supposed to do?
You say it's over this time,
Emotions…
By Buzzcocks (1996)
On album All Set (1996)

…in the eye
People talking about my life
I don't want to hear it, 'cause it's suicide
What am I (what am I) supposed to do now
What am…
I (what am I) supposed to do now
You take so much off everyone
What have you done, just looked at the sky
People trying…
What am I (what am I) supposed to do now
What am I (what am I) supposed to do now
Everybody needs somebody, everybody wants…

…understand that I finally found love
And what you've given to me is more than enough
[Chorus]:
So what am I supposed to do?
Now…
…be getting fucked up
What am I supposed to do?
What am I supposed to do?
[Verse 2]:
I think I finally found my worth
Look…
…at how the tables have turned
I promise to never let you hurt
If you promise that this shit will work
[Chorus]:
So what am I supposed to do…

…What am I supposed to do
If I know I have to live without you
Deep down in my soul it looks so sad
Can't still imagine…
…feel the same for me
Baby think twice before you leave my life
Remember the past and all the fun we had
What am I supposed to do…
…leave my life
Remember the past and all the fun we had
What am I supposed to do
If I know I have to live without you
Going round…

…I supposed to do?
What am I supposed to do?
[Verse 2]
I know you're trying
To keep me at a distance from you
Forget…
…in my mind
But even now I know I can't get over you
What am I supposed to do?
What am I supposed to do?
[Bridge]
And now
You're here…
…know I can't get over you
What am I supposed to do?
What am I supposed to do?…

Verse One:
What am I supposed to do? Why do you have to go like this? Why do you have to give me so much shit?!?! I can't handle…
…the good, and not the bad that's in you.
Bridge:
What am I supposed to do?
What am I supposed to do?
What am I supposed to do?
What…
…these tears and make them fine. Nothing you can do or say will ever make it go away.
What am I supposed to do?....
How do I…
By The Mavericks (2015)
On album Mono (2015)

…the chips are down
When you're next to me
My world keeps spinning 'round
What am I What am I supposed to do without you
Oh, won't you…
…tell me darling
What am I What am I supposed to do without you
Oh, won't you tell me darling
Don't you go nowhere
'Cause I finally…
…around
And leave me all a mess so
What am I What am I supposed to do without you
Oh, won't you tell me darling
What am I What am I supposed to do without you
Oh, won't you tell me darling…

…What am I supposed to do
With the love I have for you?
Am I supposed to let it live
Until you're ready to forgive?
Am I suppose…
…to pretend
Till you want me back again?
What am I supposed to do
Till then?
How am I supposed to feel?
Should I think…
…will we ever meet again?
Darling, oh, darling
What am I supposed to do till then?
What am I supposed to say
If by chance we meet someday…

…was young, my life had just begun
Spun my wheels, wrecked my car, woke up behind bars, screaming at the stars
What am I supposed to do…
…to send
I got time on my hands, you cancelled all my plans
I can't think, I can't try, nothing gets me high, all I do is cry
What am I…
…chasing shadows in my bed, and here they come again
What am I supposed to do to get my heart back from you…
By Erykah Badu (1997)
On album Baduizm (1997)

Now what am I supposed to do
When I want you in my world
How can I want you for myself
When I'm already someones girl?
Now what…
…and sweet

You make me feel like a itty-bitty girl
What do you do to me

Who's gonna help me fight the pain?
Who do I call when I fall into something I can't escape?
[Chorus]
What am I supposed to do…
…?
What am I supposed to do in case I miss you?
What am I supposed to do?
What am I supposed to do in case I miss you?
What do I do…
…when my train is off-track?
Get it through my head, you're not gonna come back
What am I supposed to do?

When I'm so hooked up on you
Then I realized, oh, I realized…

And then I realized that you're somebody else's guy
That day in September, I'm…

You are the one who make me feel so real
Ooh, what am I supposed to do when I'm so hooked…
