They say we need to grow up, it's not true   No longer seem to have our youth   But I won't let it get me down, no way   I won't give in to this decay   Society's trying to force us to go its way   They tell us there's nothing we can do or say   I won't give in, no, not today   I'll keep on fighting to their dismay   They say we're all giving up, it's not true   And they try to bring us down   And make the populace think like they do   'Til we blindly follow all their rules   Don't die wondering   Social belief system   Is all in tatters   And hope is crumbling all around us   Not that it matters    And they want all of us to be exactly the same   But not for me, no, not for me   I refuse to play their game   Ha ha ha ha   You can fight the system if you take a stand   You can make a difference, stand up for what you believe in
