I was always the smart one
Back chatting and lying
I was always left locked in but I'd still get away through bars of iron and steel
They would try to hold me down but I would still get away
I'm joking they just can't see that
I just want everything
But jokes won't make them go away
Would they show me if I couldn't run
Could they know me if I didn't come
Would they try to put me down because
I disobeyed
My way of getting through just seems to get to you
They'll never see it my way How could they think that I would stay
