Lyrics
The Man
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.
Told me not to go outside when I wanted to
Told me not to stay out late when I wanted to
Told me not to do a lot of things, but I don't really care
Always did what I wanted to
Never did what I should do
Always did what I wanted to
Never one to listen to you
Told me not to be a man when I wanted to
Told me not to be a punk when I wanted to
Told me not to do a lot of things, but I did them anyway
Always did what I wanted to
Never did what I should do
Always did what I wanted to
Never one to listen to you
