Telling Them
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
well i love the sound when i smash the glass,
if i get caught they're gonna kick my ass.
my mommy's worried about the way i drink,
my daddy can't deal with the way i think.
they wake me up, tell me, "to get to work,"
i slam the door, say, "shut up you jerk."
i can't wait til the show tonite,
when i'm with my friends every things alright...
[chorus:]
they're telling me, but i'm telling them.
"i'll do it my way, & i'll always win."
"when the sun goes down i'm ready to play,
it doesn't matter what anybody says!!!"
well i love the sound when i smash the glass,
if i get caught they're gonna kick my ass.
my girls stands very close to me,
that's just where i want her to be.
they say it costs $6 to get in this shack,
i'll go around & sneak in the back.
i hope the police don't show up here,
then we'll have to hide out of fear...
[repeat chorus]
