Telling Them

(album: Mommy's Little Monster - 1983)

Well I love the sound when I smash the glass,
If I get caught they're gonna kick my ass.
My mommy's worried about the way I drink,
My daddy can't figure out the way I think.
They wake me up, tell me, "to get to work,"
I slam the door, say, "shut up you jerk."
I can't wait 'til the show tonight,
When I'm with my friends every things alright...
[Chorus:]
They're telling me, but I'm telling them.
"I'll do it my way, I'll always win."
"When the sun goes down I'm ready to play,
It doesn't matter what anybody says!!!"
Well I love the sound when I smash the glass,
If I get caught they're gonna kick my ass.
My girls stands very close to me,
That's just where I want her to be.
they say it costs $6 to get in this shack,
I'll go around sneak in the back.
I hope the police don't show up here,
Then we'll have to hide out of fear...
[Repeat chorus]
