VERSE 1
Each day, standing in that crowd,
Trying hard, social pressures all round.
Be that, follow that trend there,
Join in, pretend that you care.
Show them, you like what they do,
Pretend, act like you are real cool.
Imitate, be like everyone else is,
Try things, before it’s too late.
CHORUS
Do this,
Be that,
Fit in,
Well I don’t wanna.
Be mean,
Swear heaps,
Get high,
Well I don’t wanna.
Get drunk,
Steal stuff,
Act tough,
Well I don’t wanna.
Like this,
Hate that,
Get fat,
Well I don’t wanna.
VERSE 2
See them, mimic every move,
Weekend, drink then drunken spew.
Group up, find the right clique,
Follow them, do whatever they say.
Stay blind, let them lead you round,
Be mean, put everyone else down.
Mistreat, anyone below you,
Misuse, all those trusting fools.
CHORUS
BRIDGE
I’ll do things that I want to do,
Not just because it pleases you?
Why be like the crowd all day?
I’d rather do things my way.
