What are you gonna do, when they tell you what to do?
Taught at a young age, to respect the men in blue
And due their fucking state control, your forced to go into their schools
Where they teach us twisted history and make us pledge allegiance to their flag
It's time that the next generation learned to think for them-fucking-selves

What are you gonna do
When they tell you what to do? [Repeat: x 4]

Taught at a young age, what was wrong and what was right
And as they impose their rules of suspension they hope we won't put up a fight
Well they teach us twisted history and make us pledge allegiance to their flag
You don't need a paper to say you're smart if you can think for yourself

What are you gonna do
When they tell you what to do [Repeat: x 4]

Don't let them tell to you what to do
The teachers in your class or the bullies in your school
Don't let them tell you how to think
Your parents or some fucking shrink
Don't let the, tell you how to act
Wait till they see that you're dropping out of class
Don't let the school district tell you what to do
Tell everybody... Fuck you
