Do the right thing, think it all through
Thats all I ever heard from you
My grown up, sensible, practical self
Right now I dont really need your help
That girl, I wanna take her home
You say shes nothing but trouble
And I should leave her alone
Hey, youre not the boss of me!
I hate to break it to you
Ive got a stubborn heart
And itll do damn well what it wants to do
Blah, blah, blah in my head all day
But I aint gonna listen to a word you say
Youre not the boss of me!
All my life Ive been your slave
You say turn around and I obey
Ive been a good, good boy
For a long, long time
Tonight youre finally going out of my mind
That girl, she got it going on
I know you got your opinion
But I got one of my own
Hey, youre not the boss of me!
I hate to break it to you
Ive got a stubborn heart
And itll do damn well what it wants to do
Blah, blah, blah in my head all day
But I aint gonna listen to a word you say
Youre not the boss of me!
You say no every time I wanna fall in love
You can talk all you want
But Im not gonna walk away
Youre not the boss of me!
I hate to break it to you
Ive got a stubborn heart
And itll do damn well what it wants to do
Blah, blah, blah in my head all day
But I aint gonna listen to a word you say
Youre not the boss of me!
Hey, youre not the boss of me!
