day after day my home life's a wreck
the powers that be are just breathing down my neck
I get no respect
I get no relief
I gotta speak up
and yell out your name
so back off your rules
back off your jive
because I'm sick of living
to stay alive
leave me alone
I'm not asking a lot
I just dont want to be controlled
that's all I want
I've tried being cool
I've played by their rules
Now it's their turn to try
