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? The alphabetey crooks And I will learn by studying the lessons in my dreams So turn off the T.V '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 for bar I'll sack the quarterback and jack the brother of the ball I'm a troublemaker Never been a faker Doin' things my own way And never givin' up I'm a troublemaker Not a doubletaker I don't have the patience to keep it on the up I picked up a guitar What does this signify? I'm gonna play some heavy metal Wishing you would die You wanted arts and crafts? How's this for arts and crafts? (guitar solo) (That's Right!) I'm growin' out my hair I'm movin' up to Cherokee I'm gonna be a rockstar And you are gonna bear with me 'Cause I can't book a job Like any other slob Punchin' in and punchin' out (?) Marryin' a bi-atch Havin' Seven ki-ads Givin' up and growin' old And hopin' there's a god I'm a troublemaker Never been a faker Doin' things my own way And never givin' up I'm a troublemaker Not a doubletaker I don't have the patience to keep it on the up I'm gonna be star And people will crane necks To get a glimpse of me And see if I am havin' s** And studyin' 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 Doin' things my own way And never givin' up I'm a troublemaker Not a doubletaker I don't have the patience to keep it on the up Keep it on the up (I'm a trouble maker) Keep it on the up (UP!) (I'm a trouble maker) Keep it on the up (I'm a trouble maker) Keep it on the up (UP!) (I'm a trouble maker) Never givin' up
