I don't want to know
Where you think my life is headed
I believe you’ve had your say
Don’t get me wrong I do appreciate help
Yet I need some space to grow
But your shadow's relentless in chasing away all the threats

No, it’s not o.K

Our creed is youth, the art of disregard
For time spent just spending time
Our creed is youth
So come to terms with our concerns

And take no offense
When I say I won't slave away all my life
To a promise of retirement
Whatever makes you

Proud and myself occupied watching my life pass by
Oh the best intentions turn to worst of crimes
When the dreams you're having are not mine

Our creed is youth, the art of disregard
For time spent just spending time
So come to terms with our concerns
Give it up now everyone
Give it up for the neighbor's kid
Give it up for John, the one you couldn't keep up with
He's traveled the world
Earned your lifetime pay in a day, in a single day
Is there anything you'd like to say
You back there - still living the teenage dream in your 27th year

I don't want to know
Where you think my life is headed
I believe you had your say
Love and let fail
Is it too much to ask for?
Whatever makes you

Proud and my self occupied watching my life pass by
All the best intentions turn to the worst of crimes
When the dreams you're having are not mine

Our creed is youth, the art of disregard
For time spent just spending time
Our creed is youth
So come to terms with our concerns
