You say forget about it, don't let it weigh you down
But lights are going on and there are kids all around
I have to stay true, to what I wanna be
Stay true, even if we disagree
All you want is bye bye baby
You just wanna hear me
On the radio, well I don't know
All you want is bye bye baby
You just want to see me
On the TV screen, on the cover of seventeen
Children of war, begging please no more
Is that the kind of thing you would like me to ignore
I can see the look on their faces
Why can't I tell it like it is
All you want is bye bye baby
You just wanna hear me
On the radio, well I don't know
All you want is bye bye baby
You just want to see me
On the TV screen, on the cover of seventeen
Have you read the news today
There's walls going up and walls falling
It's not gonna go away
Lovers leaving and leaders lying
You can dance if you want to
Find something new to do
But I can't forget what's going on
What's going on
All you want is bye bye baby
You just wanna hear me
On the radio, well I don't know
All you want is bye bye baby
You just want to see me
On the TV screen, on the cover of seventeen
