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…

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…
