Tell me something
Why do I always find it hard
Just to get along?
Try my best
For nothing
Every little thing I do
Is wrong
Feel it in my brain
Driving me insane
Round and round
The same old tune
Daddy's on the phone
You know you're not alone
Turn that down
And clean up your room

Don't fall in
In hot water
Sons and daughters
They don't-they don't-they don't-they don't-they don't do
What they oughta
I don't need confirmation
For my boyhood extrapolation
Though I'm not sure of my direction
I have the groove for my protection

Wasting time
Tell (tell) you something

Music is the key to set me free
To the beat
(On the street)
I'm jumping
Forgetting all the things they said 'bout me
(What?)
Here it comes again
Chugging like a train
Round and round
An impeccable groove
I know it's getting late
But I won't hesitate
Can't slow down
Got to do what I do
What I do, what I do
Sons and daughters
Always in
In hot water
Wasting time
Is a crime in their eyes
But I'm still young
So much time to decide what to do

Bite the bullet, beat that drum
March around and point that gun
Blow the bugle, hoist the flag
Learn a trade to please your dad
Arm the forces, not the mass
Taking orders is a gas
One, two

Hey, hey, yeah, yeah
Tell me something
Where you staying tonight?
Your folks have waited up for you
Now they've locked the door
And turned off the light
