Troublemaker

Put me in a special school 'cause I am such a fool And I don't need a single book to teach me how to read Who needs stupid books? They are for petty crooks And I will learn by studying the lessons in my dreams So turn off the TV 'cause that's what others see And movies are as bad as eating chocolate ice-cream They only sicken me, don't let me play football I'll sack the quarterback, and jack the brother of the ball I'm a troublemaker, never been a faker Doing things my own way, and never giving up I'm a troublemaker, not a double taker I don't have the patience to keep it on the up I picked up a guitar, what does it signify? I'm gonna play some heavy metal riffs, and you will die You wanted arts and crafts How's this for arts and crass? That's right I'm growing out my hair, I'm moving out to Cherokee I'm gonna be a rock star, and you will go to bed with me 'Cause I can't work a job like any other slob Punching in and punching out, and sucking up to Bob Marrying a bitch, having seven kids Giving up and growing old, and hoping there's a God I'm a troublemaker, never been a faker Doing things my own way, and never giving up I'm a troublemaker, not a double taker I don't have the patience to keep it on the up I'm gonna be a star and people will crane necks To get a glimpse of me, and see if I am having sex And studying my moves, they try to understand Why I am so unlike the singers in the other bands I'm such a mystery as anyone can see There isn't anybody else exactly quite like me And when it's party time like 1999 I'll party by myself because I'm such a special guy I'm a troublemaker, never been a faker Doing things my own way, and never giving up I'm a troublemaker, not a double taker I don't have the patience to keep it on the up Keep it on the up, I'm a troublemaker Keep it on the up, I'm a troublemaker Keep it on the up, I'm a troublemaker Keep it on the up, I'm a troublemaker Never giving up
