Why should anyone tell me how to wear my hair?
They say I should try to fit in
But I don't care

I'm living my life
Just the way I like
They say I get a little too loud
Try to push me in a box
Over analyze
But I'm never gunna turn it down
They say stop but I say go

Don't tell me
What I gotta do
Who I wanna be
It's for me to choose
No wrong moves
Cuz I just don't have the time

Don't tell me
What I gotta do
Cuz it's up to me
It's not up to you
If I wanna go crazy
No one's gunna stop me tonight

Oh no
Yeah

Hey
Why should I bend into what I'm not?
They say someday I might get a real job
I'm not about to compromise who I am
Just so I can bend right in
They wanna see a cardboard cutout
Well that's a fight they just can't win

They say "Yes" and I say "NO"

Don't tell me
What I gotta do
Who I wanna be
It's for me to choose
No wrong moves
Cuz I just don't have the time

Don't tell me
What I gotta do
Cuz it's up to me
It's not up to you
If I wanna go crazy
No one's gunna stop me tonight

They can say what they like
I don't hear it all
It's my life to live it
Live it just the way I want
I'm never holding back
I'm done not standing out
They say "Never" and I say "Right now!"

Don't tell me
What I gotta do
Who I wanna be
It's for me to choose
No wrong moves
Cuz I just don't have the time

Don't tell me
What I gotta do
Cuz it's up to me
It's not up to you
If I wanna go crazy
No one's gunna stop me tonight
