I was walkin' round the neighbourhood, wit my mom.
And I could tell she had some sh** up on her mind.
She turned to me and said Mike, don't you wanna meet someone?
I said, "No, I wanna meet everyone."
I wanna get drunk, wit the punks,
An do a bump, wit the King
I wanna creep down the hall, and go to bed with the Queen.
And when they come for my head, well I'll be somewhere at sea.
Singing loud, singing proud
It's good to be free
Cuz I won't waste another day,
Living someone else's way.
I wanna be happy,
I wanna be free,
f** what they say,
I'm doing me.
My momma said, "Well Mike don't you wanna be comfortable?"
I said, "No! I don't wanna be comfortable!"
I wanna be scared outta my head,
And, lost outta my mind.
I wanna fall in an outta Love a few thousand times.
I wanna spend all of my money on my friends, and on d**
And I wanna ride around on a horse, and give people hugs.
And when I come into town,
they'll say oh sh** there's Mike.
There's something wrong with that boy I swear he just ain't right
Cuz I won't waste another day,
Living someone else's way.
I wanna be happy,
I wanna be free,
f** what they say,
I'm doing me.
My momma said, "But Mike don't you wanna have kids?"
"NO! I am a kid"
And chances are if you go lookin' momma, you might find some, cuz my "pull-out" game just ain't so hot these days.
And if you find em' you tell them daddy said follow no man.
Follow the God with-in,
They'll be coming for your heart real soon.
Son, this whole thing is rigged, your back in the Matrix.
You gotta find your own way out.
Cuz I won't waste another day,
Living someone else's way.
I wanna be happy,
I wanna be free,
f** what they say,
I'm doing me.
