Pedro the Lion Nothing Lyrics

if only the rules were built upon philosophy that i embraced
i'd hug your neck and kiss your face
but its very obvious that your ideals are not for me
you'll tell me what to do
but you will see that i do as i please
cause i want to do it my way
i want to fly

the problem with rules is they alienate the criminals
when whose to say if what they did was wrong that day
if you'd open your mind up
you'd see that there is nothing that's always wrong
no matter what you say
it's just not true that there's only one way
i hope we have ourselves an understanding
