Go To

"Walk Away" is an Answer Song to "Should I Stay Or Should I Go" by The Clash.
In "Should I Stay Or Should I Go?", Mick Jones is asking the title question in the context of not being sure where he stands with a partner - in "Walk Away", Kelly is giving an ultimatum to a partner that if they're not sure of their commitment at this point, they should leave. And of course there's a lyrical parallel in the chorus:
I'm looking for attention, not another question
Should you stay or should you go?
Well, if you don't have the answer
Why you still standin' here?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Just walk away
