lyrics

Why Can't I Be Different?
I don't follow fashion, I don't follow trends
I don't knock about with a bunch of smooth friends
Why can't I be different? Don't wanna be a copy
I just wanna be different 'cause then I can be happy

Chorus:
Why can't I be different? I don't wanna be a clone
Why can't I be different? Go about on my own

Why should I conform to all your stupid rules?
Why should I attend to all your stupid schools?
Why can't I be different? And start up different dressing
But when you labelled subversive you only get oppression

Chorus:

We wanna stop conforming and being the government tools
We wanna change the system 'cause we ain't no ones fools
We should rebel against things that put us down
Well, that's my opinion anyway, my opinion anyway

Chorus:

Chorus:
