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 PEACE
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 WANT TO BE
CONTROLLED
THAT'S ALL I WANT
IT'S ALL I WANT
IT'S ALL I WANT
IT'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
IT'S ALL I WANT
IT'S ALL I WANT
IT'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
IT'S ALL I WANT
IT'S ALL I WANT
YA YA YA YA YA
