Hey Hey

I got a 20 pound ball hanging by a chain around my neck

I got to get away

Run before I become a wreck

I got to break these chains

Before I go insane

I've got to get up and go

To go any place I don't know

I'm gonna breakaway from all the chains that bind

And everyday I'll wear what I want

And do what suits me fine

Hey, hey

I'm gonna breakaway

Breakaway from the everyday

Wagging tongues behind my back

Spreading lies that hold no back

I'm gonna leave behind

All the twisted lines

Before you tear at friends of mine

And ground that heart with time

I'm gonna breakaway

From all the chains that bind

And everyday I'll wear what I want

And do what suits me fine

Breakaway, breakaway

Breakaway from the everyday

Breakaway, breakaway
