I don't care about a thing today,
I used to but I'm fed up
And I can hear the words you say,
I wish that you would shut up

I got responsibility...
That is my liability...
A menace to society...
At least that's what they say to me

[chorus]
But tonight, tonight, it's on tonight
I don't want your boring life
And I don't want your 9 to 5
Or anyone to tell me how to live my life

People always tell me not to waste my time
To get a real job and get back in line
You can say I'll never be a millionaire
Tell me this guitar won't get me anywhere

I got responsibility...
That is my liability...
I'm questioning authority...
They say there's not a chance for me

[Chorus]
But tonight, tonight, it's on tonight
I don't want your boring life
And I don't want your 9 to 5
Or anyone to tell me how to live my life

Your future's no future...
Your future's no future...
Your future's no future...
I control my future

[Chorus]
But tonight, tonight, it's on tonight
I don't want your boring life
And I don't want your 9 to 5
Or anyone to tell me how to live my life

Tonight, tonight, it's on tonight
I don't want your boring life
And I don't want your 9 to 5
Or anyone to tell me how to live my life

I'm leavin', I'm leavin', I'm leavin', I'm leavin', Tonight !!
