Don't you talk while you are eating
Please, be still when Grown-Ups talk
Girls have dolls and boys don't cry
The devil makes you want to lie!
You never should betray your feelings
“Stick to smiles”, that's what they say
Don't express your own opinion
But how ‘bout doing it your own way?
Who says: “Go to bed at nighttime!”?
Who says: “Get up at 8!”?
Who needs to smile on the outside?
Take a new course, go fish or cut bait!
Who says: “Go to bed at nighttime!”?
Who says: “Get up at 8!”?
Who needs a load of conventions
Come as you are before it's too late
“It isn't done and mind your manners”
You have heard those lines before
Do you care ‘bout what they say?
Why not break a rule a day
Do you know ‘bout all those people
Who always know what's right for you?
No need for you to be “forgiven”!
No need to change your way of living!
Chorus
