Troublemaker (iTunes Originals Version)
Put me in a special school
'Cos I am such a fool
And I don't need a single book
To teach me how to read
Who needs stupid books?
They are for petty crooks
And I will learn by studying
The lesson in my dreams
So turn off the TV
'Cos that's what others see
And movies are as bad
As eating chocolate ice cream
They only sicken me
Don't let me play football
I'll sack the quarterback
And Jack the brother of the ball
I'm a troublemaker
Never been a faker
Doing things my own way
And never giving up
I'm a troublemaker
Not a double taker
I don't have the patience
To keep it on the up
I picked up a guitar
What does that signify?
I'm gonna play some heavy metal riffs
And you will die
You wanted arts and crafts
How's this for arts and crafts
Wananana
That's right
I'm growing out my hair
I'm movin' out to Cherokee
I'm gonna be a rock star
And you will go to bed with me
'Cos I can't work a job
Like any other slob
Punch it in and punch it out
And suckin' up to Bob
Marrying a bitch
Having 7 kids
Giving up and growing old
And hoping there's a God
I'm a troublemaker
Never been a faker
Doing things my own way
And never giving up
I'm a troublemaker
Not a double taker
I don't have the patience
To keep it on the up
I'm gonna be a star
And people will crane necks
To get a glimpse of me
And see if I am having a sex
In studying and my moves
They try to understand
Why I am so unlike
The singers in the other bands
I'm such a mystery
As anyone can see
There isn't anybody else
Exactly quite like me
And when it's party time
Like 1999
I party by myself
Because I'm such a special guy
I'm a troublemaker
Never been a faker
Doing things my own way
And never giving up
I'm a troublemaker
Not a double taker
I don't have the patience
To keep it on the up
(Keep it on the up)
I'm a troublemaker
(Keep it on the up)
I'm a troublemaker
(Keep it on the up)
I'm a troublemaker
Never giving up
'Cos I am such a fool
And I don't need a single book
To teach me how to read
Who needs stupid books?
They are for petty crooks
And I will learn by studying
The lesson in my dreams
So turn off the TV
'Cos that's what others see

I'm a troublemaker
Never giving up
