Follow the straight & narrow
I’m not quite sure
Which path to take anymore
So tell me which to choose
Me or you
[chorus]
Right or wrong
Tell me how long
I have to wait
Until that choice is mine
I don’t want to waste my little time

There no yellow brick road
I only have two paths to follow
What to do?
Which to be?
Live like you
Or live like me

Right or wrong
Tell me how long
I have to wait
Until that choice is mine
17 ain’t sweet
When you have to wait
A year, a month, day or week
‘till it’s all yours
So I say we pry open those locked doors

Let yourself in
And show them how it can be done
We’ll show you how it’s done
I’ll show you how it’s done

Right or wrong
Our rights were all gone
Till we fought & brought them back
Now right or wrong
It’s ours to choose
We win or loose
It’s ours to make
Now we decide our fate

(It’s no longer you /But all me /that’s what it’ll always/Be)

Life is short; speak your mind, say what ya wanna say, and do what ya wanna do (as long as you don't get caught!).
