(Tipton/Halford/Downing)
|
I've had enough of being programmed
|
And told what I ought to do
|
Let's get one thing straight
|
I'll choose my fate
|
And it's got nothing to do with you
|
|
The years are flying by and it's time I got high
|
Took a sample of the good things in life
|
This is a chance
|
I'm gonna take
|
Gonna get out trouble and strife
|
|
I grow sick and tired of the same old lies
|
Might look a little young
|
So what's wrong
|
You don't have to be old to be wise
|
|
No I don't care that the people stare
|
Accuse me of going mad
|
Just get a long hard look into the mirror
|
Then, tell me now who's been had
|
|
The way things are going I won't get to show 'em
|
Go single all the time's up to me
|
So it's off with the ties
|
No compromise
|
Wanna taste what it's like to be free
|
|
I grow sick and tired of the same old lies
|
Might look a little young
|
So what's wrong
|
You don't have to be old to be wise
|
|
I grow sick and tired of the same old lies
|
Might look a little young
|
So what's wrong
|
You don't have to be old to be wise
|
|
I'm gonna gather my things
|
Go through the door
|
Every night I'll live on my own
|
I'd like to be there
|
And I'm gonna be there
|
I got a will of my own
|
|
I go as I please
|
Fend for myself
|
Pull all the stops, roll the dice
|
Out on my own, gonna go it alone
|
When I need it
|
Then I'll ask for advice
|
|
You don't have to be old to be wise
|
You don't have to be old to be wise
|
You don't have to be old to be wise
|
You don't have to be old to be wise
|
You don't have to be old to be wise
|
You don't have to be old to be wise
|
You don't have to be old to be wise
|
