All I Want [DVD] Lyrics
Okay! Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya!
Day after day (your home life's a wreck)
The powers that be just breathe down your neck
You get no respect (you get no relief)
You gotta speak up and yell out your piece
So back off your rules, back off your jive
'Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Leave me alone, asking a lot
I don't wanna be controlled
It's all I want
It's all I want
It's all I want
It's all I want
Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya!
How many times (is it gonna take)
'Til someone around you hears what you say?
You've tried being cool (you feel like a lie)
You've played by their rules, now it's their turn to try
So back off your rules, back off your jive
'Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Leave me alone, not asking a lot
Just don't want to be controlled
It's all I want
It's all I want
It's all I want
It's all I want
I said it before
I'll say it again
If you could just listen then it might make sense
So back off your rules, back off your jive
'Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Leave me alone, not asking a lot
Just don't want to be controlled
It's all I want
It's all I want
It's all I want
Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya!
The powers that be just breathe down your neck
You get no respect (you get no relief)
You gotta speak up and yell out your piece
'Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Leave me alone, asking a lot
I don't wanna be controlled
It's all I want
It's all I want
It's all I want
Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya!
'Til someone around you hears what you say?
You've tried being cool (you feel like a lie)
You've played by their rules, now it's their turn to try
'Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Leave me alone, not asking a lot
Just don't want to be controlled
It's all I want
It's all I want
It's all I want
I'll say it again
If you could just listen then it might make sense
'Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Leave me alone, not asking a lot
Just don't want to be controlled
It's all I want
It's all I want
Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya!
