We, we?re out of control,
That?s just the perception that they have of us.
Our justifications are of no use,
They won?t listen to a word we have to say.

Crossing a six-lane highway,
Brought the first of the troubles.
Being unsupervised was what they,
Accused us of having done.

We, we?re out of control,
That?s just the perception that they have of us.
Our justifications are of no use,
They won?t listen to a word we have to say.

Parents, they take away all the fun.
They try to protect us from society.
Why can?t they let us live our own lives?
They feel that they have total control over?

Hanging out in a hotel hallway,
Didn?t seem like much of a crime.
Just because it?s late at night,
Doesn?t mean we?re having sex.

What they see is how it is.
There?s no way around it; they won?t listen.
Hypocrisy has taken over.
?Cause now we?re free to roam where we like.

Parents, they take away all the fun.
They try to protect us from society.
Why can?t they let us live our own lives?
They feel that they have total control over?

Just leave us alone
Just leave us alone
Just leave us alone
Just leave us alone

Parents, they take away all the fun.
They try to protect us from society.
Why can?t they let us live our own lives?
They feel that they have total control over us.
