Lyrics
Free Radicals
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.
You think you're so radical
I think you oughta stop
(Say what?)
But you're going international
They're gonna call the cops
You're turning into a poor man's Donald Trump
I know those circumstances make you want to jump
Oh no
You think you're radical
But you're not so radical
In fact, you're fanatical
Fanatical
You think you're radical
But you're not so radical
In fact, you're fanatical
Fanatical
I'll tell you right now (right now)
You oughta change your mind (yes!)
All of your friends are standing in line
They're getting tired of your attitude fast
(You've got to lose it, you've got to lose it)
Without all your bodyguards, how long would you last?
(Not long!)
You think you're radical
But you're not so radical
In fact, you're fanatical
Fanatical
You think you're radical
But you're not so radical
In fact, you're fanatical
Fanatical
You think you're radical
But you're not so radical
In fact, you're fanatical
Fanatical
