[Intro]


[Verse 1]

I can see you in the morning when you go to school

Don't forget your books, you know you've gotta learn the golden rule

Teacher tells you stop your playing and get on with your work

And be like Johnnie-Too-Good, don't you know he never shirks

He's coming along


[Verse 2]

After school is over, you're playing in the park

But don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark

They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about

And grow up just like them, won't let you work it out

And you're full of doubt


[Instrumental]


[Bridge]

Don't do this and don't do that

What are they trying to do? (Make a good boy of you)

And do they know where it's at?

But don't criticize, they're old and wise

Do as they tell you to, don't want the devil to

Come and put out your eyes


[Verse 3]

Maybe I'm mistaken expecting you to fight

Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right

But while I am still living, I've just got this to say

It's always up to you if you wanna be that

Wanna see that, wanna see it that way

You're coming along
