Day after day your home life'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 piece 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 a lot I just don't want to 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've played by their rules Now it's their turn to try 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 a lot I just don't want to 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
