Yeah

Here we go

♪ ♪ ♪

It's a new day

But it all feels old

It's a good life

That's what I'm told

But everything, it all just feels the same

And my high school

It felt more to me

Like a jail cell

A penitentiary

My time spent there, it only made me see

That I don't ever wanna be like you

I don't wanna do the things you do

I'm never gonna hear the words you say

And I don't ever wanna

I don't ever wanna be you

Don't wanna be just like you

Oh, what I'm saying is

This is the anthem

Throw all your hands up

You

Don't wanna be you

♪ ♪ ♪

Go to college

Or university

Get a real job

That's what they said to me

But I could never live the way they want

I'm gonna get by

And just do my time

Outta step while

They all get in line

I'm just a minor threat, so pay no mind

Do you really wanna be like them?

Do you really wanna be another trend?

Do you wanna be part of that crowd?

'Cause I don't ever wanna

I don't ever wanna be you

Don't wanna be just like you

Oh, what I'm saying is

This is the anthem

Throw all your hands up

You

Don't wanna be you

Shake it once, that's fine

Shake it twice, that's okay

Shake it three times

You're playing with yourself again

♪ ♪ ♪

You

Don't wanna be just like you

What I'm saying is

This is the anthem

Throw all your hands up

Y'all got to feel me

Sing if you're with me

You

Don't wanna be just like you

(Be just like you)

This is the anthem

Throw all your hands up

Y'all got to feel me

Sing if you're with me

Another loser anthem

(Whoa-oh)

Another loser anthem

(Whoa-oh)

Another loser anthem

(Whoa-oh)

Another loser anthem
