Don't Treat Me Like A Child

Well, just because I'm in my teens And I still go to school Don't think that I dream childlish dreams I'm nobody's fool Don't mother me That makes me wild And please Don't treat me like a child It's often said that youngsters Should be seen and not be heard But I want you to realize That is quite absurd Don't wanna be So meek and mild So, please Don't treat me like a child Gotta be my own adviser 'Cause my mind's my own Then, I will be much the wiser My own point of view has got to be known The best years of my life I know Are those when I am young And since I'm sure that this is so Gonna have my fun So if I feel Like running wild Well, please Don't treat me like a child Gonna be my own adviser 'Cause my mind's my own Then I will be much the wiser My own point of view has got to be known The best years of my life I know Are those when I am young And since I'm sure that this is so Gonna have my fun So if I feel Like running wild Well, please Don't treat me like a child Don't ever treat me like a child
