Don't listen to me
My children don't you listen
To what I say
When I try to protect you
I'll be afraid
Of watching you suffer
I will want you to stay
Within the straight boundary
Of the unwritten rules
Society's standard
For being a fool
I will try to protect you
'Cause I'll be scared
You'll end up feeling sorry
Just like your dad
Within the straight boundary
Of the unwritten rules
Society's standards
For being a fool
It's never too late
To change your mind
To break the mould
To unwind
The ticking clock
To rebel
Or to blend in
The choice is yours
Don't listen to me
To what I say
When I try to protect you
I'll be afraid
Of watching you suffer
I will want you to stay
Within the straight boundary
Of the unwritten rules
Society's standard
For being a fool
I will try to protect you
'Cause I'll be scared
You'll end up feeling sorry
Just like your dad
Within the straight boundary
Of the unwritten rules
Society's standards
For being a fool
It's never too late
To change your mind
To break the mould
To unwind
The ticking clock
To rebel
Or to blend in
The choice is yours
Don't listen to me
