Lyrics
Consequence Free
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.
Wouldn't it be great, if no one ever got offended
Wouldn't it be great to say what's really on your mind
I have always said "all the rules are made for bending"
And if i let my hair down, would that be such a crime?
Chorus:
I wanna be consequence free
I wanna be where nothing needs to matter
I wanna be consequence free
Just sing na na na na na ne na na na
I could really use, to lose my catholic conscience
Cuz i'm getting sick of feeling guilty all the time
I won't abuse it, yeah i've got the best intentions
For a little bit of anarchy but not the hurting kind
Chorus
I couldn't sleep at all last night cause i had so much on my mind
I'd like to leave it all behind, but you know it's not that easy
Chorus
Wouldn't it be great, if the band just never ended
We could stay out late and we would never hear last call
We wouldn't need to worry about approval or permission, we could
Slip off the edge and never worry about the fall
Chorus
