Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I can see you in the morning when you go to school
Don't forget your books, you know you've gotta learn the golden rule
Teacher tells you stop your playing, get on with your work
And to be like Johnny Too Good, well don't you know he never shirks
He's comin' along
[Verse 2]
After school is over, you're playin' in the park
Well, don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark
They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about
And to grow up just like them, won't let you work it out
And you're full of doubt
[Verse 3]
Don't do this and don't do that, what are they tryin' to do?
Make a god boy of you, do they know where it's at?
Don't criticize, they're old and wise, do as they tell you to
Don't want the devil to come out and put your eyes
[Verse 4]
Well, now maybe I'm mistaken, expectin' you to fight
Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right
But while I am still livin', I've just got this to say
It's always up to you if you wanna be that
Wanna see that, wanna see that way
You're comin' along
