lyrics

day after day your homelife's a wreck
the powers that be just 
breathe down your neck
you get no respect
you get no relief
you gotta speak up 
and yell out your peace
so back off your rules 
back off your jive 
'cause i'm sick of not living
to stay alive
leave me alone
i'm not asking alot
i just don't wanna be controlled
that's all i want
all i want
how many times is it gonna take 
till someone around you hears what you say 
you've tried being cool
you feel like a lie
you play by their rules 
now it's their turn to try
so back off your rules
backoff your jive
'cause i'm sick of not living 
to stay alive 
leave me alone 
i'm not asking alot
i just don't wanna be controlled
that's all i want
all i want
i said it before
i'll say it again
if you could just listen 
then it might make sense
