Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Maybe I'm just a kid
Maybe I just don't fit in
I'm ready, I'm ready
I'm ready, I'm ready to go now
[Verse 2]
I don't wanna go to school
But I don't get to make the rules
Too early, too early
Too early, too early in the morning
[Chorus]
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody
Has to do something they don't wanna do
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody
Has to do something, oh, why's that true?
[Instrumental]
Maybe I'm not so bad
Maybe I just don't fit in
I'm ready, I'm ready
I'm ready, I'm ready for more now
[Verse 3]
But I don't wanna go to bed
So much going on in my head
Not tired, not tired
Not tired, not tired right now
[Chorus]
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody
Has to do something they don't wanna do
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody
Has to do something, oh, why's that true?
[Instrumental]
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody
Has to do something, just have some fun
[Bridge]
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na-na
[Outro]
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody
Everybody, everyone, somebody, anyone
Has to grow up, just have some fun
