prisoner of society

well we don't need no one to tell us what to do

oh yes we're on our own

and theres nothing you can do

so we don't need no one like you

to tell us what to do

we don't refer to the past

when showing what we've done

our generation gap

means the war is never won

the past is in your head

the future's in our hands!

cos i'm a brat

and i know everything

and i talk back

cos i'm not listening

to anything you say

and if you count to 3

you'll see it's no emergency

you'll see i'm not the enemy

just a prisoner of society

well we don't need no one to tell us what to do
