You say the word and Ill obey
Until I feel like I will overload
You make the rules, you make the rules
But soon I will be on my own
Now Im going down my road, yeah
You better think about it now Im free
From this moment Im listening just to me

Chorus:
Every day when you treat my like a kid,
Im not youre not youre little boy
Im not your little toy
Every day when you treat my like a kid,
Im not youre not youre little boy

Im not your little toy
Well Im a man and not a boy
Im a man and not a boy
Im a man not a boy now

I used to listen to your words, oh
I thought you knew the best through thick and thin
But you failed, you have failed
Just look at the mess youre in
Cause I made up my own mind
I started thinkin for myself
What you taught me, is going back, back on the shelf
