We're Not Gonna Take It lyrics
Welcome to this house;
I think I know know why you're here.
You wanna be like Tommy?
I'm glad you're not, I hope that's clear.
You shouldn't try to ape my show,
It's just pinball.
You don't need to claim
A share of my pain...
You're normal, after all.
You might as well get drunk.
So sorry-I've got you sussed.
No instant high for free here.
This is a bust!
I didn't live out some fairy story,
Some rags to riches crawl..
I couldn't see,
I couldn't hear,
I couldn't talk at all.
We're not gonna take it.
We're not gonna take it.
We're not gonna take it.
We're not gonna take it.
We're not gonna take it.
Never did and never will.
We're not gonna take it.
Gonna break it, gonna shake it,
Let's forget it, better still.
You don't need to hear me;
You've got ideas of your own.
Don't have to come and cheer me;
That's something you've outgrown.
You don't need to see me;
Your vision makes the scene.
Don't let Uncle Ernie make you play
On Tommy's old machine!
We're not gonna take it.
We're not gonna take it.
We're not gonna take it.
We're not gonna take it.
We're not gonna take it.
Never did and never will.
Won't take your derision
And , as far as we can tell,
We don't have to take you...
Never did and never will.
We're not gonna take you.
We forsake you, maybe rape you;
Let's forget you, better still...
We forsake you, maybe rape you;
Let's forget you, better still...
