Lyrics

[INTRO]
Yeah, we’re gonna raise some hell tonight,
No more chains, let’s break free, alright?

[VERSE 1]
I ain't got no respect,
For those who think we need to play nice,
They preach about rights, but oh what a mess,
Taking our freedoms, ain’t that precise?
First they took our grass,
Now we can’t even light up a smoke,
Well I miss those days,
When we laughed at authority’s joke.

[CHORUS]
Fuck you, that’s why,
'Cause I’m living life my way, that’s why,
Give me my smokes and let me breathe,
Your rules don’t matter, just believe,
Fuck you, that’s why,
Yeah, fuck you, that’s why,
I’ll scream it from the rooftops high,
'Cause fuck you, that’s why.

[VERSE 2]
Bike helmets in class,
What a joke, it’s a straight-up crime,
Teaching kids to be scared,
Wasting their precious time.
I wanna see Beavis and Butt-Head reign,
Let ‘em set the world on fire, feel the change,
Forget the polished suits, bring on the wild,
Let’s burn the books, embrace the free-spirited child.

[CHORUS]
Fuck you, that’s why,
'Cause I’m a nicotine addict and I won’t lie,
Hanging at Joe’s place, listenin' to tunes,
Fire up my lighter, let’s howl at the moon.
Fuck you, that’s why,
Yeah, fuck you, that’s why,
Freedom is the battle cry,
'Cause fuck you, that’s why.

[BRIDGE]
I think it’s time to take a stand,
Rage against the machine, let’s make it grand.
Open up the windows, let the smoke roll in,
Who the hell are you to say where I’ve been?

[VERSE 3]
Pete Wilson, man, you’re living a sin,
Tying up our lives, drag us out to begin.
You hang with the puppets, pulling on strings,
But real-life freedom’s the only real king.
Let’s rebel and reclaim our right to choose,
With every puff, we’ll
