On the way trying to get where I'd like to say
I'm always feeling steered away
By someone trying to tell me, what to say and do

I don't want it, I gotta go find my own way
I gotta go make my own mistakes
Sorry man for feeling, feeling the way I do

Oh yeah,oh yeah
Open wide and they'll shove in their meaning of life
Oh yeah, oh yeah
But not for me I'll do it on my own
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Open wide and swallow their meaning of life
I can't make it work your way
Thanks but no thanks

By the way know your path has been tried
And so it may seem like the way to go
Me, I'd rather be found trying something new

And the bottom line in all of this seems to say
There's no right and wrong way
Sorry if I don't feel like living the way you do

Oh yeah, oh yeah
Open wide and they'll shove in their meaning of life
Oh yeah, oh yeah
But not for me I'll do it on my own
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Open wide and swallow their meaning of life
I can't make it work your way
Thanks but no thanks

Oh yeah, oh yeah
Open wide and they'll shove in their meaning of life
Oh yeah, oh yeah
But not for me I'll do it on my own
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Open wide and swallow their meaning of life
I can't make it work your way
Thanks but no thanks
