lyrics

I had a dream of a world without rules
Where age made no difference and no one was cruel
And in this dream law and order were tools
So no one thought to ask you just whose side you were on

I'm gonna skateboard right down Highway 13
Smoke up in the boys room, never keep my place clean
I'm gonna cross the street before it turns green
Theo likes it better when you do your thinking on your own

I had a dream of a world without rules
Laws were always fair, politicians were cool
And in this dream cops were friendly, not fools
So no one ever had to wonder just whose side that they were on

I'm gonna walk just where I wanna walk
Never wear a helmet or put a leash on the dog
I'll play loud music and you know its Punk Rock
Theo likes it better when you do your thinking on your own

I don't know - I didn't understand
I don't know - why should I care
I don't know - I still don't understand
Why you feel you have to tell us what we can do
Why you don't realize that the problem is you

I had a dream of a world without rules
Where your life was your history, life was a school
And in this dream people made their own rules
And no one ever had to worry just whose side that they were on

I'm gonna stay just where I want to stay
I don't recycle, no lip service to pay
Fun is where you take it - gotta go your own way
Theo likes it better when you do your thinking on your own
