You Don't Have to Be Old to Be Wise |
| I’ve had enough of being programmed |
| And told what I ought to do Let’s get one thing straight |
| I’ll choose my fate |
| And it’s got nothing to do with you |
| The years are flying by and it’s time I got high |
| Took a sample of the good things in life |
| This is a chance |
| I’m gonna take |
| Gonna kick out trouble and strife |
| I grow sick and tired of the same old lies |
| Might look a little young |
| So what’s wrong |
| You don’t have to be old to be wise |
| No I don’t care that the people stare |
| Accuse me of going mad |
| Just get a long hard look into the mirror |
| Then, tell me now who’s been had |
| The way things are going I won’t get to show 'em |
| Go single all the time’s up to me |
| So it’s off with the ties |
| No compromise |
| Wanna taste what it’s like to be free |
| I grow sick and tired of the same old lies |
| Might look a little young |
| So what’s wrong |
| You don’t have to be old to be wise |
| I grow sick and tired of the same old lies |
| Might look a little young |
| So what’s wrong |
| You don’t have to be old to be wise |
| Alright, I’m gonna gather my things |
| Go through the door |
| Live and let live from now on At last a free hand, no longer pre-planned |
| I got a will of my own |
| I go as I please |
| Fend for myself |
| Pull all the stops, throw the dice |
| Out on my own, gonna go it alone |
| When I need it Then I’ll ask for advice |
| You don’t have to be old to be wise |
| You don’t have to be old to be wise |
| You don’t have to be old to be wise |
| You don’t have to be old to be wise |
| You don’t have to be old to be wise |
| You don’t have to be old to be wise |
| You don’t have to be old to be wise |
| (fade) |
