All I Want

(Okay) Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

Day after day (Your home life's a wreck)

The powers that be just breathe down your neck

You get no respect (You get no relief)

You gotta speak up and yell out your piece

So back off your rules, back off the jive

'Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive

Leave me alone, asking a lot

I don't wanna be controlled

That's all I want

That's all I want

That's all I want

That's all I want

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

How many times (Is it gonna take?)

Till someone around you hears what you say

You've tried being cool (You feel like a lie)

You've played by their rules, now it's their turn to try

So back off your rules, back off your jive

'Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive

Leave me alone, not asking a lot

Just don't want to be controlled

That's all I want

That's all I want

That's all I want

That's all I want

I said it before, I'll say it again

If you could just listen, then it might make sense

So back off your rules, back off your jive

'Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive

Leave me alone, not asking a lot

Just don't want to be controlled

That's all I want

That's all I want

That's all I want

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya
