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 this signify?

I'm going to play some heavy metal riffs and you will die

You wanted arts and crafts? How's this for arts and crafts? (Wa-na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na, that's right!)

I'm growing out my hair, I'm moving out to Cherokee

I'm going to be a rock star and you are going to bear 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 beeyotch, having seven keeyods

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 going to 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
