it's a good life that's what I'm told
but everything it all just feels the same
and my high school it felt more to me
like a jail cell a penitentiary
my time spent there
it only made me see
that i dont wanna be like you
CHORUS:
i dont wanna do the things that you do
i'm never gonna hear the words you say
cause i dont ever wanna
i dont ever wanna be you...
dont wanna be just like you
what im sayin is this is the anthem
throw all your hands up
you, dont wanna be you
go to college, a university
get a real job
thats what they said to me
but i could never live the way they want
im gonna get by and just do my time
out of step while they all get in line
im just a minor threat so pay no mind
do you really wanna be like them
do you really wanna be another trend
do you wanna be part of that crowd
cause i dont ever wanna
no i dont ever wanna be you..
(repeat chorus)
