Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.
I'm bored
I don't want to go to school
Don't want to be nobody's fool
I want to be me
I don't want to be sweet and neat
I don't want someone living my life for me
I want to be free
I'm going to turn this world inside out
Going to turn suburbia upside down
Going to walk the streets, scream and shout
Going to crawl through the alleyways, being very loud
Don't want to be told what to wear
As long as you're warm who cares
I want to be me
So what if I dye my hair?
I've still got a brain up there
And I'm going to be me
I'm going to be free
Tear down the wallpaper
Turf out
