Offspring Lyrics - Singles - All I Want

Day after day your whole life's a wreck 

The powers that be just 

Breathe down your neck 

You get no respect 

You get no relief 

You gotta speak up 

And yell out your peace 

So back off your rules 

Back off your jive 

Cause I'm sick of not living 

To stay alive 

Leave me alone 

I'm not asking a lot 

I just don't want to be controlled 

That's all I want 

That's all I want 

That's all I want 

That's all I want 

How many times is it gonna take 

Till someone around you hears what you say 

You've tried being cool 

You feel like a lie 

You've played by their rules 

Now it's their turn to try 

So back off your rules 

Back off your jive 

Cause I'm sick of not living 

To stay alive 

Leave me alone 

I'm not asking a lot 

I just don't want to be controlled 

That's all I want 

That's all I want 

That's all I want 

That's all I want 

I said it before 

I'll say it again 

If you could just listen 

Then it might make sense 

So back off your rules 

Back off your jive 

Cause I'm sick of not living 

To stay alive 

Leave me alone 

I'm not asking a lot 

I just don't want to be controlled 

That's all I want 

That's all I want 

That's all I want 

That's all I want
