Joan Jett & The Blackhearts
Different
[Verse 1]
Have you ever taken flack
From the bullies on attack
'Cause you're different
(Ha) They laugh and call you names
But that ain't no badge of shame
Just 'cause you're different (Yeah, show 'em, Dougie)

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Yeah, the people gonna stare
You unsettle them somewhere
That says you're different
Walking down the street
When you pass, they take a peek
That's something different

[Refrain]
Live your life outside the box
(Blow off all the empty talk)
They focus on the things you're not
Just walk your walk

[Verse 3]
An age is not in years
It sits between your ears
You see it different
It's fun to break the mold
And see it take a hold
And now you're different too
[Refrain]
Live your life outside the box
(Blow off all the empty talk)
They focus on the things you're not
Just walk your walk, come on

[Instrumental Break]

Whoo, ow

[Verse 4]
Yeah, when you're walking down the block
The traffic starts and stops
'Cause you ooze difference
Look, they treat you rough
But you're tough enough
And we're all different, yeah

[Refrain]
Live your life outside the box
(Blow off all the empty talk)
They focus on the things you're not
Just walk your walk, yeah

Live your life outside the box
(Blow off all the empty talk)
They focus on the things you're not
Just walk your walk, come on
[Instrumental]
