Mother, father, son, and daughter Sweet dysfunction, cannon fodder Day and night, keep up the fight Think to myself - this can't be right It's up to me I must be free Going to be my way Cunning teachers, pious preachers Many answers - each one differs Insensitive, I can't forgive Each think they know how I should live No time to rest Put to the test Fly from the nest today Sweet canary wants to marry Give up your dreams while hers you carry So you whisper that you'll miss her Can't settle now - the world calls hither It's up to me I must be free Going to be my way No time to rest Put to the test Fly from the nest today
